[Mailman-Users] attempting to post to the FAQ page Mailman FAQ Edit Wizard

Would there be any way to fix this in mailman, or is it just a question of broken email implementations in phones? Most likely, it's a broken MTA at the phone service provider. If any message is actually reaching mailman, it might be possible to do something with it, but I suspect that starts to become major hackery. I've found that many cell phone and pager companies have -no-idea- what email even is or how it works. They often don't understand much basic concepts as spam filtering, or even de-mimeing a message before sending it to the non-mime-aware pager (240 char of message space, first hundred are a mime header..). Things have gotten better in the last few years, though.

What you can't see at the mailman level is whether the sending MTA is able to deliver the message (after getting it from mailman). You really need to be looking at the MTA logs. You need to look at the Mailman logs to see which addresses that Mailman attempted to deliver to, and you need to look at the MTA logs to see what actually happened to those attempts. However, you will probably need privileged site-admin access to the server where the mailing list is hosted, and you will only be able to look at the logs at the command-line shell prompt. And believe me, it can be really hairy trying to figure out just exactly what the final disposition of a given message can be, since your MTA may or may not make clear in the logs as to what is a success, what is a delay, what is a bounce, whether or not the queue-ids are the same, etc And then there are the messages that were delivered by your local MTA to the remote MTA, but which were then bounced by the remote MTA and sent back to your machine. With years of mail systems administration experience, you can usually manage to pull all the puzzle pieces together, but for anyone else it can be a real nightmare.
