I think this is a different manifestation of the same problem discussed
in the thread at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2008-February/060328.html>.

The underlying cause may not be the same, but the problem is
precipitated by a message in the list's lists/listname/digest.mbox
file.

If you can't figure out which message it is (It's probably the first
one in the digest.mbox that's missing from the HTML archive if the
list is archived) You can move the digest.mbox aside, and at worst,
you'll lose the digest, but the list will start again. Then you can
run bin/unshunt to finish processing the shunted messages. Before
running unshunt, it is always a good idea to check the shunt queue for
old messages that you don't want to unshunt and delete those before
unshunting.
