Yes, the MTA *was* twiddling its thumbs, and the system too... and as Mailman's daemon was sending one VERP msg at a time, it was not processing the usual incoming stuff, and not delivering the other lists.
v2.x or v1.x?
version 2.1.5b1
I thought v2 chunked the queue processing... Hurm, if it doesn't it should and that's an easy enough fix.
From what I read we're in SMTPDirect.py :
def process(mlist, msg, msgdata):
this function does process all recipients (in chunks if not VERP) consecutively, before exiting. We spent 5 hours in its main loop for that one message.
