The Linux get_maintainer.pl can often produce a whole lot of results. As a result you'll sometimes blow your CC field over 1024 characters and that can cause listservs to reject your message.
As a stopgap, call get_maintainer.pl with "--non" so it doesn't include real names. This will dramatically reduce the number of characters.
