[Mailman-Users] Lists work, but no archives - more info

[Doug Lipman]

Additional info, which I'm sure is more to the core of my problem:

I was wrong that the lists work. In fact, any message I send - from 
any sender, registered or not - to the myw at storydynamics.com address 
is sent on to the sender. When I fill out the subscription form at 
<http://www.storydynamics.com/mailman/listinfo/myw>, it appears that 
I am completing the process. But:
	1. no confirmation email comes to the new member or to me as 
administrator.
	2. the subscriber list remains empty, too.
	3. no other previously "registered" subscribers get copies of the mail.
I guess the archiving problem is just a symptom of whatever is 
causing this problem.
Any ideas?
Doug
