<DIV><SPAN class=242103319-07112002><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good afternoon. I'm
running a new setup of mailman, the version that comes with Red Hat 8.0. My
problem isn't with Mailman per se, but with the sync_members script that comes
with it. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=242103319-07112002><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to load
members from a text file. The file has one email address per line and contains
2,086 emails. When I run the script using the following command while
logged in as root, "./sync_members -n -w=no -a=no -f members realtor-members",
doing the dry run, everything seems fine. When I remove the -n parameter to run
it live, it gets through 2,043 emails and then generates the following

the addresses around the one it appears to be dying on, and they look fine. I
have no idea what this is telling me the problem is. I've looked in the

this one out? Any help would be appreciated.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
