If you can get to the mail logs on the server (someplace in /var/log/ maybe, often called "mail." something, and do a "tail -f logfilename" while you send some mail to the list, you can sometimes gain some insights.
What kind of UNIX? What's the e-mail software? Sendmail?

I run a hosting company that subcontracts the space on virtual servers from an outside company. These servers are UNIX boxes. I've had a mail list set up that revolves about 100+ messages a day through it's doors to over 350 members. I recently upgraded my server space (about 2:30 today) and the list stopped working at about 2:30 today. Hmmmm. They (the techs) said that the only thing they did was allocate more space on the servers I was on for me to use and they touched nothing else. I can tail my e-mail to the SMTP server and it states that it has been sent, but I get nothing posted to the mailman list. The directories are still there, and I can get into the html pages (http://server.server.com/admin/list) but I receive no mail. I'm a Windows guy (sorry) so I don't totally understand UNIX environments. Ids there something I should check or try off the top of your heads? I have several clients on the list and I'm SURE this doesn't look good to them. Thanks for the help!
