Subject: -1 CGPE-internal moderator request(s) waiting
The CGPE-internal@sussex.ac.uk mailing list has -1 request(s) waiting for your consideration at:
http://mail.sussex.ac.uk/mailman/admindb/cgpe-internal
Please attend to this at your earliest convenience. This notice of pending requests, if any, will be sent out daily.
That's not 1 request, its "-1" request. There aren't any requests when they get there. I think this is a bug introduced in the last update (or the one before, I skipped a version). I've only seen it since I last upgraded.

After updating to 2.1.5 I started getting such informations from mailman for new mailing lists without any traffic, yet.

There is a problem with 2.1.5 in that it expects every list to have an administrative request database containing at least a one entry (a dummy entry containing the version number recording the database format).
Ways to resolve the -1 request warnings include:
- do something that generates an administrative request, after handling it the request database will be left in the correct form
- copy an "empty" request.pck from another list
- fix the bug by applying the patch in http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=970383&group_id=103&atid=300103
