This was a very helpful tip!  In this case, a user requested one of the E-Mail archives.  The SMTP server has a 10MB limit on E-Mail.  ListServ went nuts trying to send the E-Mail.  Apparently for .MAIL files, there is no quitting on retries.  I deleted the offending .MAIL file and the problem has resolved itself.

It would be helpful if there was a way to display things that have been on hold or are lost.  This is taking me hours to resolve.

Windows:

Add this line to site.cfg

SMTP_DEBUG=1 

Then stop/restart the LISTSERV service.

Unix:

add these 2 lines to go.user

SMTP_DEBUG=1
export SMTP_DEBUG

Then restart LISTSERV by doing   ./go bg  command in ~/listserv dir. 
------------------
Now the SMTPS#n logfile will show the full SMTP 'conversation' between LISTSERV and whatever mail server.  This may shed useful light on the problem.
For example if Exchange admins upgraded from Exchange 2003 to 2007/2010 then Exchange requires authenticated connections from remote SMTP servers (which LISTSERV can't do).  There is a work around for that, but first find out more what the problem actually is.
