Is mail to LISTNAME-owner delivered?

Check Mailman's bounce log to find when the disable occurred. Then
check Mailman's smtp log at the same timestamp to see if there is a
pair of entries similar to

Jun 17 12:53:46 2012 (8882)
<mailman.200.1339962825.8880.listname at example.com> smtp to listname
for 1 recips, completed in 0.024 seconds

Jun 17 12:53:51 2012 (8882)
<mailman.200.1339962825.8880.listname at example.com> smtp to listname
for N recips, completed in 0.025 seconds

Note the mailman generated message id. the first is the message to
listname-owner and the second is the resend to the N owners and
moderators.

Also check the MTA logs.
