Interesting Goings ons...
We have mailman setup on our server... Everything is working fine except one thing, all the approved emails are going to the recipients, all denied are getting denied.. only one thing is bugging me... if theres a pending request, we used to get a email letting us know that we have email waiting for approval.. its not happening anymore.
I went through aliases and made sure it is 'mailman' not 'wrappers' (Since we used to have the older version.
made sure that the aliases file is being called.
and even the email addy is in the admin and moderator spot on the webform...
what am I missing? Please let it be simple? lol.

Go to the list's General Options and make sure the email addresses for owner and moderator (if any) are correct. Then scroll down to Notifications and make sure admin_immed_notify is set to Yes.

Are you getting the daily summary of moderator requests?
Look in Mailman's SMTP log? When a held post is processed, there should be two or three entries in the SMTP log with Mailman generated message-ids of the form <mailman.nnnnn.nnnnnnnnn.nnnn.listname@example.com>. One of these is the notice to the poster if respond_to_post_requests is Yes and has 1 recipient. Two are first, the moderator notice to listname-owner with 1 recipient, and then the resend to the owner(s) and moderator(s) with number of recipients = the number of owners and moderators. Do you see these in the log?

The above are sends of two messages (two different message IDs). Message id <mailman.1140.1162396334.4950.allhands@apl.washington.edu> is the poster notification and <mailman.1141.1162396334.4950.allhands@apl.washington.edu> is the owner notification. The owner nothfication is sent to allhands-owner@apl.washington.edu and then resent to the owners and moderators. If there is not a second entry in the smtp log for message id <mailman.1141.1162396334.4950.allhands@apl.washington.edu>. There is a problem with delivery of mail sent to allhands-owner@apl.washington.edu.
What happens if you manually send mail to that address?

If I were to want to modify the subscribe request conformation email that Mailman creates so that it does NOT include any reference to a web page for processing the confirm, what file would I need to modify? The following woudl be an example of what I woudl want to eliminate...

The template is templates/en/verify.txt, but you don't actually change this file. You make a modified version of this file and save it in one of three other places depending on whether you want it to apply to a list, all lists in one domain or all lists in the installation.
