[Mailman-Users] Sending MovableType notifications via Mailman

[Eric Lee]

I just checked and unfortunately, both the variables are set as you
suggested -- generic_nonmember_action  is 'hold' and forward_auto_discards
is 'yes'.  But I'm not getting any error messages back.  Any other ideas?
Thanks.

Oh, and take what you have gathered from coincidence.
