Well..after checking the API, there are no Users with nomail. So the mail should be send.
- You mentioned checking the shunt queue. Have you checked the bad queue, and all the other queues for good measure?
- If archiving is enabled, are the messages being archived?
- Even though there's nothing in smtp.log, you should still check mailq for held mail (there may be related issues).
Mailman operates on the traditional "store and forward" principle. That is, unless an explicit decision is made to discard a message, Mailman will not discard the qfile until all destinations (usually the local MTA, archiver, and possibly news gateway) have accepted responsibility for further delivery. There's a pretty good chance that evidence of what happened is in either the Mailman or MTA queues.
