Good afternoon. I'm running a new setup of mailman, the version that comes with Red Hat 8.0. My problem isn't with Mailman per se, but with the sync_members script that comes with it.

I am trying to load members from a text file. The file has one email address per line and contains 2,086 emails. When I run the script using the following command while logged in as root, "./sync_members -n -w=no -a=no -f members realtor-members", doing the dry run, everything seems fine. When I remove the -n parameter to run it live, it gets through 2,043 emails and then generates the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./sync_members", line 257, in ? main() File "./sync_members", line 240, in main welcome, notifyadmin) File "/var/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 1054, in ApprovedAddMember raise e, v Mailman.Errors.MMBadEmailError

Now I've looked at the addresses around the one it appears to be dying on, and they look fine. I have no idea what this is telling me the problem is. I've looked in the /var/logs/mailman dir to see if I can find any evidence of what's going on, to no avail. Anyone out there have any idea where I should start looking to figure this one out? Any help would be appreciated.
