There is almost certainly a message or messages in the
lists/LISTNAME/digest.mbox files for these lists that is causing an
exception to be thrown in the scrubber in it's attempt to process the
digest.

Ask the hosting provider to look for relevant error messages and
tracebacks in Mailman's error log.

You may have to have the hosting provider just move the
lists/LISTNAME/digest.mbox files aside and abandon the current
accumulated digests if the hosting provider can't do anything more
selective to find and fix the offending messages.
