We have a newsletter type list that has been running for almost two years now. The list currently has 1,100 members who receive one email each morning. The Bounce Configuration page for this list is configured as follows: Yes, 5.0, 30, 2, 7, Yes, Yes, Yes which I believe may be the defaults. The system is running under RedHat V4.
I ran the following command: grep 'score' /var/log/mailman/bounce and received a list of 28 users that have records containing "(score 5.0 >= 5.0)". I can see one duplicate email address in this list of 28 - most of the records appear to be unique email addresses. The dates on the records cover a period of one week.
It appears there are a number of candidates that could have their subscriptions Disabled and/or Removed from the list. I have been the list admin for two years now and I have never received an email saying a list member has been Disabled or Removed. This seems odd based on what I am seeing in the logs. I do receive emails for bounce messages that fail detection regularly.
Is it possible to see in a log (or through the online interface) when a user is placed in Disabled status? I would like to be able to grep this log and see if anyone is being Disabled or Removed - this may confirm if there is actually a problem or not. Let's say looking at the logs reveals that list members are not ever being Disabled or Removed - what is the next step to debugging this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help! Greg Sims
