Since I maintain a couple of dozen lists, I need a way to reduce the time taken to process them. I use listadmin[1], a command line tool to manipulate the queues of messages held for moderator approval and subscription requests.
How many of those things could be fixed by fine-tuning the list settings, to prevent those happening, or to use filters/regexpes better?
(I spent time looking at the actions I and moderators were taking, to define some rules to reduce things from several a day to a couple a month.)

I was hoping that someone on this list, with the inside knowledge of mailman, could maintain it, or write something similar.
Whilst I see Mark's replied already, I wonder if it would be better use of building tools around Mailman 3, for when 3.1 is released/ready.
This should be easier to maintain, as it would use the various APIs, rather than scraping.
