Is there a way to manually delete held messages from a list's config.db file? I periodically get held messages that will not delete because they contain a sequence of characters that cause the discard function to blow up. You know, the 'ol "We're sorry, we hit a bug!" error screen.
In the past I've solved this by determining the date of the bad e-mail and restoring the config.db file from tape backup to the day before the e-mail was received. This is getting to be too much. I've searched the archives and found a few posts on this but no solutions. I saw one post from Barry Warsaw that described a procedure using bin/withlist but I didn't understand it. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/1999-July/001720.html I don't know how to "lock" a list and I don't want to edit the list's attributes. I just want to delete the bad e-mail message. Any tips would be appreciated. I'm using mailman 1.0 (upgrading next month) ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
