[Mailman-Users] pending request problem

[Alan.Rubin at nt.gov.au]

Mark,

I don't see how that is likely.  I'd be very surprised if there was another
mailman server in this environment.

I'm not sure if the above will paste properly into this email, but the simple
headers indicate the sender as being @ lists.nt.gov.au.

I am suggesting that these notices are coming from a different
cron/checkdbs, possibly even on a different machine being run by a
different crontab. (There is no list config setting.)

Look at the chain of Received: headers in this message to find what
machine it originates from. Then find the mailman installation on that
machine that it's coming from. E.g.

  find / -name corporate_reporting_finance

I am sure that you will find this notice is not being sent from
/export/home/mailman/cron/checkdbs on the
'lists.nt.gov.au'(150.191.80.112) box.
