I am getting EOF errors from qrunner (specifically from marshal.load). It looks like I have some empty .db files in the qfiles directory. I ran out of disk space a while ago and that may have caused the problem.
Is there any way to re-generate the .db files from the .msg files in the qfiles directory?
Thanks.

Just a reminder, but it is important to backup your Mailman files on a regular basis.
The key files to backup are the list info and the archive info. Backing up the ~mailman home directory will get it all. tar -czf mailman_bak.tar.gz ~mailman
You might also consider backing up the config file for your web browser, while you are at it. tar -rzf mailman_bak.tar.gz /etc/httpd/conf
Yes, I know that this is the most obvious message, but we have had a lot of recent messages about recovering corrupted installs, and the best method is to restore from backup.

Thanks,
I think the best way for a backup is to backup mailmans data self. Extract all members, extract lists coniguration via "config_list". If the MM DB became corropted, it should be easy to recover it.
