OK. This one came from the list. There are only a few reasons why a
particular post would not be archived, assuming archiving is working
in general.

1) There could be something in this particular post that throws an
exception in ArchRunner. This is unlikely, but check Mailman's error
log to be sure.

2) If a post contains an "X-Archive: No" or an "X_No_Archive:" header,
it won't be archived. This doesn't seem to be the case here.

3) If the post's Message-ID is the same as that of an already archived
post, it will be in the LISTNAME.mbox file, but it won't be in the
pipermail archive. grep Mailman's post log for this post's Message-ID

grep "<COL113-W22FAD79423AE3666EAAE42CC900 at phx.gbl>" /path/to/logs/post

and see if there is more than one post with this Message-ID (don't
forget to check rotated logs as well if any). You can also see if this
post in in archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox which will
tell you that Mailman tried to archive it. Note that two different
messages should never have the same Message-ID, but ...
