The notice to the owner(s)/moderator(s) is sent by the same process
immediately following writing the vette log entry contingent only on
admin_immed_notify being True.

The message is sent From: and To: the listname-owner address with
envelope from the listname-bounces address.

Check Mailman's smtp log for entries with the same or perhaps + 1 or 2
seconds time stamp as the vette log entry. There should be a send for
1 recip for the list followed immediately by a send for a number of
recips = to the number of owner(s)/moderator(s). Do you see these? How
about in the MTA logs?
