[Mailman-Users] messages won't go through

2009-11-17 Thread alex wisser
I am using mailman version 2.1.11.cp3 to handle 6 mailing lists for a small 
community organization and am having difficulty.  Each list has approximately 
200 members, subscribed through the mass subscription function on the list 
admin interface and everything seems to be working, but when I send a message 
to the list it doesn't seem to be going on to the addresses on the list.  I 
know this because I have put several of my own and other member's of the teams 
addresses on the list and we haven't gotten anything either to spam or inbox.  
I have called people on the list and they haven't gotten anything either.  The 
messages are stored in the list archives.  I have tried a variety of options 
including sending them as moderated and non moderated, from the admin address, 
from a member address, from a non admin address.  I have gotten two messages in 
return.  One was a fatal bounce error from one of the member addresses and the 
other was an automatically
 generated reply from another list saying that I would have to belong to that 
list to post there. I have also created a small test list with just three 
addresses on it (my own) and the messages went through fine.  I have compared 
options on both the real lists and the test list and have found no solution.  
Can anyone help me?

cheers

Alex Wisser

Do you receive other messages from Mailman, e.g., subscription
notifications?


I know this because I have put several of my own and other member's of the 
teams addresses on the list and we haven't gotten anything either to spam or 
inbox.  I have called people on the list and they haven't gotten anything 
either.  The messages are stored in the list archives.  I have tried a variety 
of options including sending them as moderated and non moderated, from the 
admin address, from a member address, from a non admin address.


If the messages are in the archive, they have gotten past all tests of
moderation, poster, etc., and they should be delivered to the list.


I have gotten two messages in return.  One was a fatal bounce error from one 
of the member addresses and the other was an automatically generated reply 
from another list saying that I would have to belong to that list to post 
there.


These would seem to indicate that the list is sending something.


I have also created a small test list with just three addresses on it (my own) 
and the messages went through fine.  I have compared options on both the real 
lists and the test list and have found no solution.  Can anyone help me?


The general troubleshooting tips are at http://wiki.list.org/x/A4E9.
Also see http://wiki.list.org/x/sYA9 for cPanel information.

If this is your Mailman installation, the above will be useful. If it
is hosted, and you don't have shell or command access to the server,
you will probably need to contact the host.
