Thanks,

Mail seems extremely slow for us right now.

I tried running,

==========
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms -f

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 395, in <module>
    checkdata()
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 349, in checkdata
    mode = statmode(path)
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 82, in statmode
    return os.stat(path)[ST_MODE]
OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/var/lib/mailman/lists/owners-final/config.pck'
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# 
===========

It could be I have a trashed OS/box after losing the disk?

===========
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# sudo grep -r '/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members' /etc
Binary file /etc/prelink.cache matches
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# 
===========

===========
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# sudo grep -r 'list_members' /etc
Binary file /etc/prelink.cache matches
[root at vuwunicomailmn1 ~]# 
===========

===========
sudo grep -r 'list_members' /

8><----
===========

has a lot of output.

regards

See my prior reply at

That's a question only you can answer. I would start with

sudo grep -r '/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members' /etc

If that doesn't find it, maybe

sudo grep -r 'list_members' /etc

or

sudo grep -r '/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members' /

or

sudo grep -r 'list_members' /

will.
