I sent this to -users and haven't heard back from anyone, so I'll try here.

My setup: Linux 2.0.32 sendmail 8.9.2 (was 8.8.7 until this morning) mailman 1.0b8

I have a single list with 77 subscribers. I am hosting the list through a modem, and it is great. The improvements since b5 are such that delivery time has improved from over 4 minutes for a typical message to about 1:30. Everyone is happy with the list. Except for a couple people that don't receive any of the traffic.

I added a couple subscribers over a week ago and they are not getting any of the messages. They did receive their subscription reminders.

I have unsubscribed them and then re-added them (it is a closed list) and it didn't help. Their profiles are the same as anyone else, but they just don't get any of the mail.

The only thing I can think of is that the ones that are shut out are all on AOL. There are 22 regular subscribers on AOL, and I noticed how the mail gets batched together. Is it possible that there is a limit to how many recipients my sendmail is seeing? In my case a single message gets sent for all the AOL recipients, of which there are only 19 on the recipient list. Is there a way I can control how this works?

The only reason I can even think that is the problem is that the most recently added users are the ones that aren't getting the traffic.

Thanks for any ideas.
