However, I've got some alternate ideas from browser usage and web site development. Note: liberally apply grains of salt to these ideas - they're untested. The 15 minute timeout is likely your browser deciding the web server is b0rked. Very possibly the web server just has too much to do. The browser is running one of mailman's python scripts so it can display the generated html. Idea 1: Separate the time to run the script from browser display, i.e. manually run the python script with appropriate arguments and save the output to a file. Put the file on your web server and use the browser to display it. Click on the appropriate buttons and you're done. Idea 2: Find the html source code for the "pending requests" page and locate the "discard all deferred items" checkbox. Determine which script gets run and the appropriate arguments. Then run the script from the command line. Good luck.
