I had the same thing here with over 200 lists we run as newsgroup gateways in my office.
I found that if you visit the admindb page, then follow through to the view all details page, the problem for that list resolves and the messages stop. As there are actually no messages there to approve, you don't need to do all this in a web browser, if you have a lot of lists affected and you know there are no msgs really waiting, you can just use curl to visit them all and resolve the problem. I used a bash script like the one below: #!/bin/bash for i in `cat listnames.txt` ; do echo $i; curl -F adminpw=sitepass http://yourdomain.com/mailman/admindb/$i > /tmp/admindb-$i curl -F adminpw=sitepass http://yourdomain.com/mailman/admindb/$i?details=all > /tmp/admindb2-$i done You can check over the files in /tmp if you want to be sure it all went ok. I hope that helps. It's a bit off the cuff as I've only just run it, but that should fix the problem. As for what causes it - who knows! Mailman authors?
