Hello Doc,

    I hope that you are well, I wasn't quite satified with the convert file
so I re-did the configure file and placed the mailing list routers first
before the dnslookup router and it seems that the message being blocked was
actually an incoming message. I guess that in reordering the routers the
system now accepts the message but gives the following in the logs:

2002-04-29 18:46:05 172Ldd-0004ef-00 == nsmith@??? routing defer
(-51): retry time not reached

    I assume that after a few times of retrying it will give up on this
domain and then dump it back from where it came to the multimediaclub-admin
on the mailing list system for errors. I think that this will resolve
correctly to a person who owns this list and that will be take care of by
that person. I have provided snipets of the from the logs of messages
(randomly) same message send a couple of times.


    Am I correct in thinking this way.


    Cheers,


        Aly.
