I know this question was asked by me before last year. But this time is even weird. We are running ListServ on Solaris 7. The particular list reached 'daily-threshold' (50) since last night. I figured it would be automatically sent out today but it did not. All other other lists are working and I tried stop/start ListServ daemon, stop/start sendmail and even rebooted machine but no help. I deleted the list according to the manual (deleted ~home/chinapol* and ~lists/chinapol and all its directory) and restarted the listserv. Next, I cloned a working list configuration into chinapol and make myself a sole subscriber. I sent a test post and it still went to ~spool directory with: [listserv.staff@weber2] ~/spool [189]% ls -l total 12 -rw-r--r-- 1 listserv 2096 Jan 13 12:39 0007_8_chinapol.jobh -rwxr-x--- 1 listserv 7904 Jun 3 2002 jobview* -rw-r--r-- 1 listserv 6 Jan 13 12:20 listserv.PID 0007_8_chinapol.jobh content: ================================================================= <HDR1>1 M CHINAPOL $NOJOB$ *MAILER* INCOMING MAIL <HDR2> Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by weber2.sscnet.ucla.edu (8.13.2/8.13.2) with ESMTP id j0DKdkpF027572 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:39:46 -0800 (PST) Received: from weber2.sscnet.ucla.edu ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (weber2 [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with LMTP id 26805-01 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:39:45 -0800 (PST) Received: from weber.sscnet.ucla.edu (weber.sscnet.ucla.edu [128.97.42.3]) by weber2.sscnet.ucla.edu (8.13.2/8.13.2) with ESMTP id j0DKcZb6027516 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:35 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by weber.sscnet.ucla.edu (8.13.2/8.13.2) with ESMTP id j0DKcawE028829 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from weber.sscnet.ucla.edu ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (weber [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with LMTP id 28207-03 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from weber.sscnet.ucla.edu (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by weber.sscnet.ucla.edu (8.13.2/8.13.2) with ESMTP id j0DKcaFi028809 for <[log in to unmask]>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (shinn@localhost) by weber.sscnet.ucla.edu (8.13.2/8.12.11/Submit) with ESMTP id j0DKcZqm028806 for <chinapol@weber2>; Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:35 -0800 (PST) X-Authentication-Warning: weber.sscnet.ucla.edu: shinn owned process doing -bs Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:38:35 -0800 (PST) From: Shinn Wu <[log in to unmask]> X-X-Sender: [log in to unmask] To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Thu Jan 13 12:38:25 PST 2005 Message-ID: <[log in to unmask]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at weber.sscnet.ucla.edu X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at weber2.sscnet.ucla.edu Thu Jan 13 12:38:25 PST 2005 ================================================================= and I got this message: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:39:47 -0800 From: "L-Soft list server at UCLA SSC (1.8e)" <[log in to unmask]> To: Shinn Wu <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Message ("The distribution of your message dated Thu, 13...")

I checked the manual to make sure that archive's atributes is correct (the same as other lists). It would work if I changed the name, so there must be some indexes files I missed that still sent the post directly to ~spool. I am going crazy..... would any one please help! Thanks. Shinn
