It could be trying to process some waiting mail for one of your lists. You should run a ~mailman/bin/check_db on each of your lists. If the config file is corrupted too badly, you can replace the corrupt config.pck with an older one: config.pck.last
And by replace, I mean stop mailmanctl and then copy the old config over the new one. The old file represents your configuration before you made your last change. Of course, if you are a good sysadmin, you might just have backups of the current ones on your back up server and you can recover from there. If that doesn't clear up your problems then you might need to clean out the qfiles.
