This log message does not exist in standard GNU Mailman. What Mailman
package/version is this?

Further, this has nothing to do with the message(s) below.

In any case, this appears to be saying that the message was discarded
either by a moderator after being held or by the Moderate handler. This
has nothing to do with the number of list members.

The above says that the message was successfully delivered to the
outgoing MTA in some number of transactions with a total of 2001
recipients. Mailman has delivered that message. What happens next is up
to the MTA.

What are your mm_cfg.py settings if any for SMTP_MAX_RCPTS, SMTPHOST and
SMTPPORT? If these are not set in mm_cfg.py, what are the Defaults.py
settings?

This log is incomplete.

The above is the post delivered to Mailman for posting to the allmember
list.

And the above two entries are Mailman generated messages, possibly a
notice of a held message to allmember-owner and then the resend of that
to the actual owner/moderators.

And a post and two notices as above

[...] (more of the same removed)

Where are the log entries corresponding to the  Sep 14 11:09:51 entry in
the smtp log? Wher are the rest of the entries for queue ids 4441A1F401,
746861F419, etc?

I appreciate your keeping this thread on the list, but it would help if
you would actually join the list too.
