Mailman has completed delivery to exim of the message for the 49194 recipients in under a minute at a rate of about 100 recipients per second. That seems reasonable and certainly wouldn't result by itself in significant delay to the recipients. So the question now is when was this log entry written relative to when the post was sent. If the entry was written within a minute or two of the post's being sent (or approved), there were no significant delays in Mailman and you need to look to exim and beyond. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED]The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] deleting a big message queue
Hi. I have a very big message queue for a mailing list. The queue is so big that the web page http://lists.xxx/mailman/admindb/yyy takes to long that the server times out.

If not, I think your web server is pointing at the wrong place. OK, now we are making progress. Thanks. I can indeed see the list if I supply the list name in the link like you suggested. I guess that means the scriptalias is correct so the question now becomes, why do they not show up on the admin or listinfo links? Does this also mean if I start mailman it will work in spite of the incorrect web interface? Yes, Mailman will probably work if you start it as long as aliases or whatever is required for mail delivery to the list are in place. As far as lists missing from the listinfo overview, we are back to the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/lYA9. Assuming the lists are public (Privacy options... - advertised = Yes), the list doesn't appear on the overview because VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = On (the default), and the host portion of the list's web_page_url attribute does not exactly match the host portion of the URL used to access the page. Perhaps you had VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = Off in mm_cfg.py on the old server and didn't carry it over. Or, perhaps you changed it in Defaults.py on the old server; if so, this is why you shouldn't do that. I'm making some progress as the problems so far seem to be ownerhip and permissions since the copy had to be done as root. I could not find anything that tells me what the group and owner should be for each associated directory but I think I have them all set to mailman:mail. Now I am getting this error from postfix: status=bounced (Command died with status 2: /usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman. Command output: Group mismatch error.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Problem Migrating Mailman to New Server
Dennis Putnam wrote: I'm making some progress as the problems so far seem to be ownerhip and permissions since the copy had to be done as root. I could not find anything that tells me what the group and owner should be for each associated directory but I think I have them all set to mailman:mail. bin/check_perms will help. I don't think mailman:mail is correct. The user is not important, but the group should be Mailman's group (the setting for MAILMAN_GROUP in Defaults.py. Run bin/check_perms -f as root. That should make group and mode correct. Now I am getting this error from postfix: status=bounced (Command died with status 2: /usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman.

The mail wrapper is compiled to to expect to be invoked by the 'mail' group. Postfix will invoke the wrapper as the user and that user's primary group corresponding to the owner of the aliases.db file in which the pipe command was found. I.e., if the aliases.db file is userx:groupy, postfix will invoke the wrapper as userx:groupx where groupx is userx's primary group. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED]The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
