[Mailman-Users] Mailman/Held Messages for Admin
Is there anyway to SELECT ALL and REJECT ALL in the Held messages for the admin. Our list is getting so many spams, I have to click one by one thru 136 messages to get rid of all of them. Is there another way to delete them. Maybe I just need to know where the HELD messages are and delete them in Unix. Please let me know if you know the solution by direct email to this address.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman/Held Messages for Admin
Look at the FAQ for an automated way of deleting the held messages. The FAQ also discusses the location of the data files and how held messages are processed. I assume you are running version 2.0.x since version 2.1.x has the features you requested.
