[Mailman-Users] All recipients refused: please run connect() first

[Fritz Thomas (VTG)]

Hi there!

I've got a mailinglist with about 200 subscribers and get the following
logentries when qrunner wants to deliver the queued mail to the subscribers:

~/mailman/logs/smtp shows the following entries:

Mar 21 18:10:00 2001 (30558) All recipients refused: please run connect()
first
Mar 21 18:10:00 2001 (30558) smtp for 154 recips, completed in 120.047
seconds


~/mailman/logs/smtp-failure has 154 lines like this:

Mar 21 18:10:00 2001 (30558) -1 foo at bar.com (ignore)

after about 40 seconds:
/var/log/maillog (sendmail 8.11.2 with Trend Interscan in front)

Mar 21 18:10:42 foo sendmail[30562]: f2LH80G30562: lost input channel from
localhost [127.0.0.1] to Daemon0 after rcpt


And because the mail can not be delivered, it won't get out of the queue and
so qrunner tries to send it all
the time.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance

Thomas
