I am writing on behalf of the GNU project.  We have an discovered some sort
of bug in mailman.  The .../logs/errors file is getting:

Nov 22 11:24:01 2000 qrunner(29262): Traceback (innermost last):

Nov 22 11:24:01 2000 qrunner(29262): IndexError :  list index out of range 


This was happening with 2.0beta6, so I upgraded to see if it's a bug fixed
by 2.0, but it isn't.

I think this may be related to a particular file in the queue being
formatted oddly, but the result is the entire queue is held up.

I am looking a bit deeper into the code right now, but I'd appreciate help.
(Mailing lists at gnu.org are currently down becasue of this bug).

I will send more information as I discover it.
