<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I probably didn't understand the question (or the
problem...), but it sounds like you had a simple problem that some of the posts
were ignored, but now everything is working fine. This delay could have
been a simple matter of when cron started up the proper
scripts. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The current version of Mailman does not use a
daemon to run its processes - instead cron is used to startup several
sub-processes that use lock files to monitor each other (so they don't step on
each other). The news gating processes may not start for several
minutes.</FONT></DIV>

fine.</FONT> <BR><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Both news groups are on the
