[Mailman-Users] 2.0 stable release coming soon?

I had the same problem with approving a message to a list of 7400+
subscribers. It was distributed twice before I checked the log/smpt
file. Immediately I went into the qfile/ dir and erased any other
instances that had to do with this particular message. I believe that this
message would have been distributed multiple times if I had not done the
deletion.

On another list with about 2000 subscribers, messages get distributed
twice. 

The list with smaller number of subscribers do not have this problem.

later,
mentor
