The requests waiting user confirmation are in the file
lists/LIST_NAME/pending.pck. Requests waiting moderator action are in
the file lists/LIST_NAME/requests.pck.

There are scripts at  (mirrored at
) which can help with this. In
particular, "erase" and "list_requests". Also, the withlist script
"discard_subs.py".

More recent Mailman has defenses against robotic web subscribes, but
none are in 2.1.9.

[Mailman-Users] mailman queues

[keld]

I have a problem with removing failing subscription requests
eg from a bogus requester. I thought I could remove the request
from a queue somewhere but cannot find it.
the subscription requests keep recurring, over 1000 in my maillog -postfix

I looked in /var/spool/mailman , but no ordinary files in the dirs.
running 2.1.9 in a somewhat complex env, mulitiple domains.
