mail delivery not consistent and very slow
I recently upgraded my Mailman onto a new machine. It appeared everything was running smoothly except now I have users saying they are posting and not seeing it come through. All messages are successfully posting to the archives and I am seeing most messages get delivered but not 100%. I have read the FAQ's and followed all of the suggestions without any errors: http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030722 http://tinyurl.com/6xrrju*
*My smtp-failure and error logs are not helping me determine what's wrong. Whenever I post a test to any list so far it always gets delivered. But I have a few users who said they have tried several times and don't see anything. I had one woman try again this morning and can see it on the archive but not in my email -but other postings have been successful!! Please help me. I have several members upset about the delay or lack of delivery and I can't find out what's going on.

Jewel, I am sure that it would help the gurus if you tell us if you see a/any given ISP involved.
I had a prob with a couple gmail users on ONE of my Lists which my hosting Tech gent was able to solve [I don't have a clue, Mark -:):):)].

I know it's not a gmail problem because it's happening with so many lists. I did notice that my CPU is almost always at 100% due to python - don't know why. I know my machine is spitting out lots of mail but cannot figure out what there is such a delay.

With out knowing if messages are making it from Mailman to your MTA I can't say for sure, but it may be that your server's load average is too high and your MTA is refusing to accept new messages.

Do your mail logs show messages leaving the mailing list going to the users that are claiming to have not received the message(s)? If the messages do show up in your mail logs, then the problem is likely not with Mailman. If the messages are not making it to your mail logs, then the problem probably is with Mailman.
