Apparently DNS info hasn't percolated well enough with the updated entries and a lot of stuff was queued to be sent to the old mail server. I've started mailman on the old server , so now we actually have a situation where there are two mailing-list services running.What's going to happen now is that mail should reach the subscribers, so that's good , but we're going to have an inconsistent archive. I'll rsync the archives later on when the DNS issues are fixed Hopefully stuff is fixed to a slightly more acceptable degree ... -- pradosh
