If you actually had taken a look at the logs yourself, you had noticed  
that the message was sent just fine. So either this was a log from a  
successful sending, which makes it completely useless, or the messages  
are sent just fine, even though IMP reports they are not. Probably the  
latter, because you managed to sent a dozen messages to the list or to  
me personally.
Maybe this is bug #10498.
