One of our mailman lists consistently generates an 'unknown mailer error 1'
sent to postmaster. This happens everytime a message is posted to this
list.
I've included the python traceback from ~mailman/logs/error below. These
message indicate that the problem is in the LogMsg() function when it is
called from the RegisterBounce() function in Bouncer.py.

One clue to solving the problem may be that the list administrator changed
the value of one of the Bounce Options. They changed:

    Maximum number of messages your list gets in an
    hour. (Yes, bounce detection finds this info useful)

from the default of '5' to '20'.

By the way, we are now using mailman 1.1 but this problem was occurring
with
1.0 also.
