So I deleted the mailman/data/heldmsg-yourlistname-*.pck files - and I had to delete them in stages, as the infamous "Argument list too long" message bit me.
In these kinds of cases, what you can usually do is something like this:
# cd $MAILMAN_HOME/data
# find . -name heldmsg-yourlistname\*.pck -print | xargs rmAnd that will do the job for you. Of course, the "#" prompt means to do this as the root user, and you want to make sure you include the backslash before the asterisk so that the shell doesn't try to interpret the wildcard, and instead passes that to find. Read the man page on xargs to see how it's used.
And now I tried again and it timed out again after another 15 minutes.
What next?
As for that, I wish I could be of assistance.
