Thank you, Mark. The problem is resolved now. It was due to the
selection of the "not metoo" option, and also the mysterious message
loss related to gmail's inbox.

Thanks. I tried everything on the page
http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/4.78+Troubleshooting-+No+mail+going+out+to+lists+members
but nothing helps. Permission is correct. The qrunners and the MTA are
all up and running. Log shows that it is sending out acknowledgements,
auto responses, and daily digests fine, but it somehow skips sending the
message itself.
Does the list have any eligible recipients? I.e. is there at least one
list member who is a regular, not a digest member, who has delivery
enabled, who is not in a To: or Cc: of the message unless avoid dups
is not set and who is not the poster if the poster is not set to
receive own posts?
I tried to strace the outgoingrunner, it does the following when a
message is posted.
1. opens the message file in the out folder,
2. opens config.pck,
3. opens another message file in the out folder (seems user notification)
4. opens config.pck again,
5. establish socket connection and sends a message.
Apparently, it skips sending the original message file after reading
config.pck. I went through the configuration options but couldn't see
any option that could have turned off message delivery. What could have
gone wrong?
Try stopping OutgoingRunner with a SIGTERM. Then send a post and look
at the entries in the out queue with Mailman's bin/dumpdb. dumpdb will
show two objects, the message and it's metadata. Is there an entry for
the outgoing post? If so, is there anything in the 'recipients' list
in the metadata. If so, the post should be sent to those addresses
when OutgoingRunner is restarted. If not, either the CalcRecips
handler didn't find any eligible recipients or AvoidDups removed them.
The cleanest way to restart after this is to stop and then start
mailman with bin/mailmanctl.
