[Mailman-Developers] forever pending subscriptions

Hi.

I'm using mailman on a lot of different machines with the Exim MTA in
version 3.16 and everything worked fine with beta2.

In the last weeks i tried a few times to upgrade to beta6 or rc1.
But this always ends up in a very strange behavior. Since i am not the
only one who reported this to the mailman-users-list and got no answer i
also send this mail to the developers list, because i think it may be a
bug.

The Following happens:

After upgrading to rc1 without any errors from make install mailman
still works fine, but it does no subscriptions any longer.
A user who signs up in the listinfo page gets his confirmation mail and
after he/she confirmed the message (and the MTA delivered it w/o error)
nothing happens. The subscribe log still shows the user as pending and
nothing happens.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

thx

andreas
