Looks to me like the alias is wrong. "post" takes an argument. Since that's exactly what the error message is saying (there is no "argv[1]"), it seems like a good guess.

i was panicky, therefore my last message was inexact.

it turns out that one of my lists is not working any more. the web interface still works, and the list is visible, but mail bounces

other lists on the server ARE working, so this is a problem of just this list.

this is the error message.

Traceback (innermost last): File "/servers/mailman/scripts/post", line 45, in ? mlist = MailList.MailList(sys.argv[1]) IndexError: list index out of range 554 "|/servers/mailman/mail/wrapper post... unknown mailer error 1

i did a checkdb for the list, and it did not find any errors. how can i revive the list?
