qrunner (?) probs
by Jozsa Kristof Feb. 2, 2001

Feb. 2, 2001

Hello, I'm a relative new mailman admin with some knowledge to python but basically zero admin experiences with mailman itself. I've set up a few (~10) lists with mailman (v 2.0final-1, from deb package) and they seem to work fine, except one list. This one spams /var/log/mailman/error like this: -- Feb 02 11:05:01 2001 (7702) Delivery exception: illegal argument type for built-in operation Feb 02 11:05:01 2001 (7702) Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/… [View More]
