[Mailman-Users] Everything stopped yesterday

[G. Armour Van Horn]

Andy,

For me it turned out not to be the case at all. After hours of
hair-pulling
I found that the oldest message in
    /home/mailman/qfiles/
was truncated. Deleting that one message opened the floodgates.

I've left the error entry in the original message below. It was the
"'string' object has no attribute 'lower'" that finally caused me to
look at
the earliest affected message.
