That has nothing to do with outgoing mail in out/ or retry/. It is a
message that had defective MIME structure as indicated. It was
possibly truncated somewhere along the delivery path to Mailman, but
more likely was just spam with a defective MIME structure. It was
queued in qfiles/in/ by the MTA and the exception occurred when
IncomingRunner picked it up from the in/ queue and tried to parse it
into an email.Message.Message instance for processing.

As it says, that message was ignored.


As far as the retries and slow delivery are concerned, look at
Mailman's smtp-failure log for the reason the messages are queued for
retry.
