The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Ari Epstein <address@concealed>]

Hi there,

Lately, I've been having issues with sympa dying every week or so.  I'm using
the Debian etch packaged version (5.2.3-1.2).  Here's a sampling of the sorts
of errors that appear in the log:

xen1:~# grep safefork /var/log/sympa.log

I would be very glad for any assistance figuring out what's going on here or 
at
least what this message means.  Thanks,
