[Mailman-Users] Problem in subscribing members

[The Berean]

That's an idea, but I used strictly the email address, not any additional
characters.  In addition I got a subscription confirmation for all 282
subscribers.  Most of them got their welcome messages as far as I know, but
a few here or there, never received anything, even though their emails are
working fine.  I wonder if Mailman hiccuped :)
