Searching google I found that this error isn't related to the number of
users in the list, it occurs because the total number of addresses in the
To: and Cc: headers of the post equals or exceeds
max_num_recipients.
The operational issues have already been addressed well in other
posts. However the above statement is incorrect, and needs
clarification.
The items visible in your personal mail client (MUA) in the To:, Cc:,
and Bcc: fields are usually called "addresses" or "addressees". These
are different from "recipients", which are the addresses that the
host-to-host mail program (MTA) sends to. Mailman "explodes" the
list's *address* into a large number of *recipients*, and asks the MTA
to deliver to that whole list of recipients, or to chunks of it as
Mark explains elsewhere. You will in general never see the list of
recipients of a post unless you look at the MTA's logs.
By the way, there's nothing wrong with your understanding of plain
English, in which "address" and "recipient" are pretty much the same.
However, in technical discussion these words are often distinguished
as above.
But in documentation is said that if this option is set to 0 it has
no limit.
The limit you are running into here is not in Mailman, it is in the
MTA. Mailman cannot tell the MTA what to do; it can only
restrictitself to a small enough number that the MTA will cooperate
with it.
Ok, I was still getting the errors because in my hurry I put
SMTP_MAX_RCPS instead of SMTP_MAX_RCPTS. I corrected this and restarted
both mailman and postfix, now I don't get any errors in smtp-failure and
in post I get this (with no failures):
Oct 24 12:29:30 2012 (6788) post to contas from x...@xxx.xxx, size=2458,
message-id=<20121024122919.11874kw8jiq8t...@xxx.xx.xx>, success
In my mail.log I see this for one of the members of the list in the
exact moment I posted to the list:

But the message never appears in the user's mailbox. Other messages
sent by users appears normallly in mailbox.
Some users receive the messages sent by mailman, for these users i see
this in mail.log:

I'm totally confused why this is happening...
