I have seen this, but it was after I customized the majordomo scripts.
I fixed my bug and have not seen it since.  It happened for me when
multiple subscribe/unsubscribe requests came in all at once.

Thanks,

Subject: Using Majordomo to manage an existing list

Hello;

We have a set of mailing list we are currently managing with our own 
application. There are about 90 lists representing 90 vendors. Vendors
hold 
events with varying frequency. We give our clients the option to sign up
for 
a mailing list(s) informing them of upcoming events.

There is an existing java program which sends outs out the emails 5 days

before an event.

I would like Majordomo to handle subscribing and unsubscribing of users
to 
our 90 lists (they are stored in a mySQL DB). I don't want Majordomo to 
anything other than manage the adding and removing of email addresses
from a 
mySQL DB. The existing program will continue send out the mails. Can
this 
easily be done with Majordomo? Will I have to change our database of
users 
to a different format?

Thanks,

Luke
