Could you confirm the configuration of mailman that hosts jp-kernelnewbies list. It does not deliver and archive any messages well.
Do you have any idea?
Over Christmas I spent a few days looking at the system, but I have not found anything yet. I did turn on some more debugging options, so future messages to the mailing list could show me what is going on.
OK, the problem is stranger than I imagined. After rebooting my dom0 (the mailing list runs in a Xen guest), crond stopped running cronjobs in the Xen guest. Once I restarted crond (and exim, out of paranoia) logrotate started running again and the mail queue started being pushed out. I have no idea yet what causes crond to stop running after a dom0 reboot (and guest save/restore), but will be looking into it... -- All rights reversed.
