You said in a subsequent message that the messages are all being
posted, but they're also bouncing. It sounds like some address on
your list has gone bad and is reflecting all of the mail back to the
list in a particularly subtle way. I was working on a very similar
problem this morning, where mail to an address at ic24.net was all
being returned to the list and showing up as a `bounce'. So check the
headers of each `bounce' to see if they're all coming to you from the
same site.
