Re: [Mailman-Users] Weirdness
Mailman maintains a current version of its config file and a backup that is one generation older. It sounds to me like the current config is corrupt and it is falling back on the backup. This should show up in the logs, probably the error log or maybe qrunner. Something you can try is to run bin/dumpdb on the config.pck and config.pck.last files for that list to see if it throws an exception or reports a problem. Dragon The problem is there are a pair of lists that are exhibiting this behavior simultaneously.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Weirdness
Jay Chandler quoted me and replied: Is the unsub still in Membership management...-Membership list? Are the new subs there? Yes. It LOOKS correct within the web interface... So if I understand correctly, you have new subscribers on the admin Membership list pages with delivery enabled and not digest, and they aren't receiving list mail but other members are. Is this correct? Are they bouncing? (look in mailman's bounce log and/or follow the link to their options page). Also, you have a former list member who does not appear on the admin Membership list pages who is still receiving mail from the list. Is this correct? Is it possible this person is getting mail forwarded from another address which is on the list?

[Mailman-Users] Removing illegal character or duplicated user names - update
To update you on this issue, I have a user whom I managed to subscribe incorrectly to the list and now cannot remove her. There appear to be two hidden subscriptions, neither of which appear in the subscriptions page. If I leave her normal sub active, she gets three copies of list messages; if I suspend mail on her (visible) account, she gets 2 copies. I have diff-ed the full messages she receives in the case of 3 copies, and apart from some oddments to do (I think) with MIME all emails are identical, which means the recipient addresses timestamps are identical == all three emails were produce for the same recipient at the same time by the list manager. BTW I've added one of the diff contents to the end of this post FYI. My best understanding as of now is that I have managed (by attempting to subscribe with illegal characters via the mass subscribe) to create two hidden subscriptions which are active but unmanageable. I can only see two possible ways to address this: 1) edit the system-level data defining the subscribers - problematic as I'm on dreamhost and do not have sysadmin access to the underlying data 2) find a way to create a pattern-match input to 'mass unsubscribe' which would find and remove the entries. Speculative scenario: if there are now three identical IDs in the underlying database, the system may be unable to key on these in order to do anything with them, but will process them sequentially when creating outgoing posts. I have copies of the original outbound posts as received by Viv (my subscriber), plus my diff files, if they are of any use, but as they contain subscriber data I'm uncomfortable posting them public.
