This is a crontab entry, so simply adjust the checkdbs crontab entry...

Become root and:
# crontab -e -u mailman

The crontab editor will pop up, and you will see an entry like this in
the list, change it as necessary for your needs:

# At 8AM every day, mail reminders to admins as to pending requests.
# They are less likely to ignore these reminders if they're mailed
# early in the morning, but of course, this is local time... ;)
0 8 * * * /usr/local/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/checkdbs

For notes on how to use cron:

(The above entry will run at the 0th minute of the 8th hour of every day
as it reads...)

Good luck!

Best,
