I meant what if you restore the old request.pck and then go to the admindb page for the list. >> If none of this helps, or if you have a new request.pck with requests >> since removing the old one, you could try bin/dumpdb on the >> request.pck files to see what's in them, although I'm not sure how you >> would use this information if you couldn't use the files themselves. > >bin/dumpdb shows me the data from the various request.pck files, what is >the format of entires, presumably they are subscription/post requests? Yes, they are. The file is a pickled dictionary with keys and values. The keys are generally numbers called msgids (not to be confused with email Message-Id:) and the values are 2-tuples consisting of an operation and data. There is a special key = 'version' with data (0, 1), i.e. operation = 0 and data = version number currently = 1. The rest of the keys are numeric and the operations are numbers as follows: 1 -> held message 2 -> subscription request 3 -> unsub request The data varies according to the operation. For a held message, data is a 6-tuple consisting of time, sender, subject, hold reason, message filename and message metadata dictionary. For a sub, data is a 6-tuple consisting of time, address, full name, password, digest flag and language. For an unsub, data is just the address.
