Most of them are junk, so you remove them.

The next day cron sends and email saying there are 26010 requests.

This is happening for only one list.
The rest of the lists are working fine.


This problem comes up on the Mailman-Users list from time to time, and in every case for which a resolution is reported, the notice is coming from a different Mailman instance.

It may be that you have a unique stiuation. The fact that the number increments is certainly unusual but my guess is still a parallel installation that may also be receiving posts to this list.

Check the Received: headers in the notice to see at what host it originates. Then as root on that host, do

find / -name checkdbs -print
find / -name request.pck -print

To see if you can find where these messages are coming from.

You could try to move the lists/<listname>/request.pck file aside for this list in case there is some possible corruption there that's causing this. It's OK to just move it aside. It will be recreated.

I really doubt that there is any problem with this request.pck. If there were, it would show up when you run cron/checkdbs by hand.
