pending request email unreadable
Hi, I receive some pending request for a list who I'm the administrator and moderator and in the message body on the web interface is unreadable, it's just something like that Sm9saSBib25uZXQgZGUgbGFpbmUgbGFpc3PDqSBwb3VyIG1vcnQgYXUgZGVybmllciBJbnRlckNB Q0Ugw6AgQ2hpY291dGltaS4gSWwgZXN0IGJydW4gZXQgYmVpZ2UgYXZlYyBkZXMgb3JlaWxsZXMg ZXQgZGVzIGxhbmnDqHJlcyBwb3VyIGF0dGFjaGVyIGF1IGNvdeKApi4NClF1ZWxxdeKAmXVuIGEg Z2Vsw6kgZGVzIG9yZWlsbGVzIGxlIHdlZWstZW5kIGRlcm5pZXI/Pz8/DQoNCk1hbm9uIExhcGll cnJlDQpNYW5vbiBMYXBpZXJyZQ0KYWdlbnRlIGRlIG1pbGlldSBldCByZXNwb25zYWJsZSBkZSBs J2Vudmlyb25uZW1lbnQNCmNvbnNlaWwgZGUgdmllIMOpdHVkaWFudGUNCkPDqWdlcCBkZSBjaGlj
But if I approved this message it's send in readable format for all the user list. Why this can happens? I can't verify if it's appropriate content and I need to approve it to see it, it's not useful.
I use mailman 2.1.6 on red hat 4 server with sendmail server and ASSP server to block spam. Some test message appears fine and some other is unreadable.

That's encoded text.
But if I approved this message it's send in readable format for all the user list. Why this can happens? I can't verify if it's appropriate content and I need to approve it to see it, it's not useful.
Usually you get a copy in your email; that one should be readable.

In older releases, base64 and quoted-printable encoded message bodies were not decoded for display in the admindb interface. This is a bug <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/629738>. It was fiuxed in Mailman 2.1.4.

Install Mailman 2.1.14 from source. If you are using a RedHat package, see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/KYCB> and the mailman-developers post linked therefrom before you do this.
Alternatively, you can copy the base64 encoded text and paste it into a stand alone decoder.
Or, as Ralf suggests, if you set admin_immed_notify to Yes for the list, you will get an email notice of the held post which should be readable.

The admin_immed_notify is already set to Yes. The moderator receive a notification that they had pending request but on the notification they don't have the email who's moderated.
I will try to upgrade to other version like Mark Sapiro saids
Thank you

The list admins and moderators always receive a daily summary of held messages and other requests. This does not include the text of the messages.
When admin_immed_notify is set to Yes, they also receive a message each time a post is held. This is sent at the time the post is received by the list and held and it contains the actual held message as an attachment, and it should be viewable in decoded form in most MUAs.
