Hi Mark, Thank you for your reply.

That is right, these are vette-log entries and the approving attempt is done via the admindb web interface. I found out that as soon as the list-administrator just selects the link in the ".... requires approval" message as sent by mailman, ("Reason: Post by non-member to a members-only list") the message is discarded at that very moment! (vette log update detected) After that the following is displayed: |Action to take on all these held messages: |Defer Accept Reject Discard but *no* pending message is there to Accept. > Have you modified admindb.py in any way? No! > Does the web admin interface work? Except for the murdering of pending messages the interface works flawlessly. > What Mailman version is this? mailman-2.1.9-4.el5 (RPM) > How exactly are you approving messages? As said before: by selecting the link in the mailman-sent message.
