I've seen a number of posts (courtesy of Google) about this topic, yet not a single one noted a solution. All either were resolved with,
- upgrade and it will go away (I have the latest of everything)
- "this only happens on spam (bad header), don't worry about it."
- you are using a RH RPM install that is broken.
Well, in my case I'm on a debian system (code via apt-get) running mailman-2.1.2-6. I have about 12 mailing-lists all seem to function without an issue except for one. Anytime anyone mails to it, the message gets "Shunned" and I see this error in the log/error file (mind you the message is obsoletely fine - its as though there is lock someone that is forcing all legit messages to be shunned).

If I try to 'unshunt' the message - nothing happens and it simply pops back into the qfiles/shunt dir. I have hoards of people waiting for this to get resolved and I've tried asking anyone who would listen on IRC (irc.freenode.net #mailman and/or #debian) to no avail. The website was no help at all (there is no mention of 'shunting' even and alot of the info is rather dated).
Could someone please lend a helping hand _ASAP_ ?
I'm not on the list, so please CC your replies.
