[Mailman-Users] Mailman has stopped delivering mail

checking qfiles...

I have 300+ files in there, ONE of which has a large PDF attachment, 
over 300k (grr, have to beat that user).  And interestingly enough, 
it was sent on the last day that Mailman successfully delivered 
anything.

Tom Veldhouse suggested the following:

>You need to get rid of the large message in $MAILMAN/qfiles as well.  Also,
>remove the locks in $MAILMAN/locks.  Then kill the process.  It will hang
>again when it comes across the queued mail if you don't do this.

which seems to have things running again.  Does anybody know where 
the problem is here? Mailman? Python? FreeBSD?  Anyone have an actual 
solution?
