ok. My concern was that there might be an issue that prevents (many) other
messages from appearing in the archives. If it was rejected accidentally, it's
not good but it's also not as serious as silent data loss would be. Thanks for
checking.


Actually, the "removed message from queue by token" is logged when the *sender* removes it.

So basically the order was:
1.  harada.toshi@po.ntt-tx.co.jp send an email to the list (with CC to people, I assume)
2. A return email from pglister was sent saying "hey you sent an email to a list that you're not subcribed to, what would you like to do"?
3. harada.toshi@po.ntt-tx.co.jp (or somebody reading that email address) clicked the link in that email to cancel the message and remove it from the queue.
