Check the headers of the request to make sure it is not coming from your older server. I run all of my clients' lists on cPanel servers and have done hundreds of migrations from other servers. The times that clients' reported phantom moderated notifications, all were coming from their previous server.
cPanel has great tools for monitoring list traffic btw. It is the main reason why I run all of my 2.1 lists on cPanel servers. Have a great day!

I recently migrated a set of Mailman lists from a standard 2.1.18 installation (on ancient RedHat) to a cPanel host (CentOS 7) running Mailman 2.1.27. One glitch in that migration involves a pending moderation issue, which ultimately does not need to be dealt with because it was just spam to the list address from a non-member. Due to some flaw in my migration process (probably related to cPanel's list name mangling) the daily pending request reminder script is sending the moderator a reminder of the issue, however the issue is not visible in the web UI. The pending.pck file for the list has this unilluminating content: # ../../bin/dumpdb pending.pck [----- start pickle file -----] <----- start object 1 -----> { 'evictions': { 'fe643c3a29afd79686e7ee0578f83b2fa2ae1eba': 1550223270.461477}, 'fe643c3a29afd79686e7ee0578f83b2fa2ae1eba': ('H', 2440), 'version': 2} [----- end pickle file -----] Python is not a language I use much so I'm not sure what the daily 'checkdbs' script is seeing that makes it think there's a pending issue or what exactly the contents of that pending.pck means, although I expect it is relevant. The other 3 lists that were migrated in the same way at the same time which did not have pending issues have similar pending.pck contents but DO NOT generate the phantom notifications. My first impulse is to just clobber the pending.pck file, but I am not sure if that is safe. Advice would be greatly appreciated. -- Bill Cole [email protected] or [email protected] (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Available For Hire: https://linkedin.com/in/billcole -- Bill Cole [email protected] or [email protected] (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Available For Hire: https://linkedin.com/in/billcole ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/brian%40emwd.com ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
