Summary: Uncought runner exception: Empty module name

Initial Comment:
Hi!

I run several lists on mailman, and all of the lists are 
working OK, but suddently one of them (named 
fc_general) stopped working, and I get the following in 
logs/error every time I try to post to the fc_general list:

The rest of my lists work correctly.  

I was using 2.1.2, but today I upgraded to 2.1.4 and it's 
still failing.

What can I do?

Thanks!

I am having a simlar problem.  Mail comes in, but never goes 
out to the list.  Everthing is shunted.  I found this "patch"  
http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers@python.
org/msg06317.html and applied it.  Then I ran unshunt.  That's 
when this appeared in mailman/logs/error

I use 2.1.3 and have the same problem. Any solution in sight?

Hi, 
 
was this somehow resolved?? I just found to have the same problems! 
What can I do that the messages (the shunt directory is now 1,5 MB 
big! [not the contents of the dir, but the dir inode itself...!!] ) are 
written into the archives without loosing anything? unshunt just puts 
them back into the shunt directory. 
 
Is there some patch - anything? 
 
Thanks a lot 
Marcel
