I run plenty of lists on my server and on many of them the moderator-requests are piling up over time.
Mostly when there is a spam-flood or when I'm on vacation or cause the people that moderate the list dont do their job.
Is there a way to delete the moderator-requests with a command on the server instead of going to the moderator-request-page for each list?
I found the heldmsg- files in mailman/data but deleting them does not change the fact that I still receive emails that "300 mylonelylist moderator request(s) waiting".
Where can I set this for a certain list? Or how can I update the internal counter with the real number of moderator-requests? I could then delete the heldmsg- mails depending on date and simply remove all old requests at least.
thnx peter

See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.012.htp> and <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.074.htp>.

That's because simply removing the files doesn't update the list's request.pck (or request.db prior to 2.1.5) file.
