Hmm. Well, I did finally get the message that I sent to this thread, but
there was a large delay for some reason. So, I incorrectly came to the
conclusion that sending to the mailing list wasn't working right now. Either
way though, the posts that have ended up on the forum ever since it started
working again have not ended up in the mailing list - or at least, I haven't
received them. So, I really don't know where the current problem lies. But
if the messages sent to the mailing list are are only supposed to be sent
out to the list if they came from the newsgroup first, then that would imply
that the newsgroup and mailing list are interacting properly, but something
is still wrong between the newsgroup and the forums.
