Finding a Particular Outbound Message
Mailmain is currently not sending traffic. But that's okay at the moment. One of my users wants to cancel a message she's sent. Normally I couldn't do this, because traffic goes out too fast for me to catch it.
But since right now nothing's moving, I told her I'd try before I re-started mailman. Where would I look to find an outgoing message?

Depending on where your version of Mailman is installed, that would be in ${MAILMANHOME}/qfiles/out/. Otherwise, it has already been handed off to the MTA.

Or, depending on what part of Mailman's processing isn't running, it might be in qfiles/in/. You can use bin/show_qfiles to list the contents of the queue entries.
Note if the Mailman problem is OutgoingRunner and the message is in qfiles/out/, it may already have been archived.
