I have RedHat 9 running mailman rpm 2.1.1-5 with python 2.2.2-26. I have several lists one has 12 addresses, the others have about 500. I have mailman configured for 100 recipients per message. When I send to the smaller list the messages are always delivered but if I were to send the exact same message to the larger list some receive it but most don't. I get this error message in my mailman smtp log:

This server has been running great until 2 days ago and no changes had been made other than updating httpd to 2.0.40-21.11. What does this error mean, what caused it, and how do I correct it?
