        I'd have to check the code, but from reading the traceback it 
seems to me like there was some sort of error writing to the log 
files.  What is the ownership and permissions for the Mailman "logs" 
directory, all the log files within that directory, etc...?  How full 
is that filesystem?  How large are those log files?

        Those are the Python "pickle" files which contain binary data 
regarding the message.  Use the "show_qfiles" program in 
/usr/local/mailman/bin.  For example, from the /usr/local/mailman 
directory, do the following:

                % bin/show_qfiles qfiles/shunt/*.pck

        However, if the "pickle" file is causing errors of this sort, 
then show_qfiles may come back with errors as well -- you'll just 
have to give it a try.
