	Correct, but Mailman should be able to deal with this issue and 
at least skip the message in question and continue processing all 
other messages.

	What concerns me here is that recently we've started hearing a 
lot of people complaining about this problem or that, which results 
in messages being shunted -- but also causing that list to stop 
working.
