First, thanks to all who offered suggestions to get Mailman up and running...and it is working just very, very slowly. First, a little info about the machine ("gundam") it is installed on: Redhat 6.2 Sendamail 8.9.3 I believe Procmail handles local delivery in Redhat I have some accounts on gundam subscribed to the list "listfoo" I also have an account on another machine on the network subscribed as well. If I just send a plain old email from one account to the other on gundam it arrives in seconds. If I post to listfoo it takes anywhere from 2-15min to arrive in the boxes of the other subscribers. This huge delivery lag is also the case for the account on another machine so I'm ruling out a local delivery problem. Everything in the maillog looks kosher, here's a snip from a message outgoing to listfoo: sendmail[3220]: JAA03220: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=262, class=0, pri=30262, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, relay=IDENT:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [127.0.0.1] Aug 10 09:39:50 gundam sendmail[3221]: JAA03220: to="|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post listfoo", delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, stat=Sent ---------------------------- Here's some headers from a listfoo post (this arrived the same time as one send 20 min before it!?!): Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from gundam.xxxxx.com (IDENT:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [127.0.0.1]) by gundam.xxxxx.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA03242; Thu, 10 Aug 2000 09:42:01 -0400 Received: from gundam.xxxxx.com (IDENT:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [127.0.0.1]) by gundam.xxxxx.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA03220 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Thu, 10 Aug 2000 09:39:50 -0400 Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2000 09:39:50 -0400 (EDT) From: jlg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Subject: [Listfoo] 9:44 Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Errors-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-BeenThere: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailman-Version: 2.0beta5 Precedence: bulk List-Id: listfoo a cool list for testing <listfoo.gundam.xxxxx.com> ----- Any suggstions?
