We have been using Mailman software for almost 6 years now without much of a problem. Occasionally, some of our subscribers complain that they do not receive mails from the mailman list. What I have been doing as a list moderator in such situations is, deleting the existing id of such a user and re-create the same id. Many-a-times this solution has worked. However, it doesn't work for particular user. I have re-created the id for this user at least 5 times but still the user in question doesn't get mailman mails. what do u think could be the problem. we are using 2.1.3, which quite out-dated as compared to the latest version, 2.1.8 I will be upgrading the version shortly.
Many thanks,
- Francis

We've got some instructions in the FAQ that should help you track down e-mail delivery problems. Have you searched the FAQ for "troubleshooting"?

I don't know why this would make a difference unless delivery was disabled for that user and deleting and recreating had the effect of enabling delivery.
The user or her/his ISP could be filtering or blocking the mail from your mailman installation based on any number of factors. Can you successfully send non-Mailman mail to this user from the same domain as Mailman sends from?
