[root at oak bin]# ./check_db --all
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./check_db", line 153, in ?
    main()
  File "./check_db", line 121, in main
    mlist = MailList(listname, lock=0)
  File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 124, in __init__
    self.Load()
  File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 583, in Load
    dict, e = self.__load(file)
  File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 556, in __load
    dict = loadfunc(fp)
cPickle.UnpicklingError: invalid load key, '_'.
