subjectively the list has seemed fine to me over the past couple days, but still getting reports of (sometimes very) delayed receipt of messages for others subscribed to the list. checked one complainer in the logs and found 19 E files all with this error. same for some other (known good) domains.

presently i have runq cranked to -n 80 with no immediately observable ill effects.
