[Mailman-Users] Some recipients not receiving messages?

Thanks for the reply!. With --regular & --nomail=enabled, it does, indeed, show 41. The 40 most certainly comes from times when someone includes an address already on the list, as you said. 

I have been trying to get MTA log info from MacOS Sierra, but haven't gotten that working. It always worked previously, but Apple changed a lot of the logging in the latest OS and it doesn't log anything like it did previously. I'll continue to work on it. I was just hoping maybe I could get the info from mailman in the meantime.

Thanks for the help!
