Hi all,
FTF: Solaris 2.6; Sendmail 8.8.8
The file $mailmandir/lists/mylist/next-digest does contain the messages
sent to the list. Yesterday - out of the blue - I received a message I
had sent to the list a while ago. I've replied to the message yesterday
and it has not been sent out to the list users; it's in the next-digest
file.
The following is in our error file:
