[Mailman-Users] unclaimed action of mailman

[Masaharu Kawada]

Hello Mark-san,

Thank you very much for your response.

Are the messages you mention that emails which sent to mailman at example.com?
Could you please let me make sure that the admindb web interface is a page 
titled like "Mailman mailing list Administration General Options Section",
and the mail sent to mailman at example.com can be visible in somewhere on that
page. Is this correct? If so I would like to know exactly where that emails are. 
"Tend to pending moderator requests"?

I will verify if such files are existed in mailman's data/ directory.

On the other hand, is it possible to know/find where that emails are, if I
get the output of dumpdb command executing against lists/mailman/config.pck?


Best Regards,
