Can you kill -TERM it or do you need to kill -KILL it?

Are you sure there's nothing relevant in Mailman's qrunner log
(/var/log/mailman/qrunner if a rhel packaged Mailman)? Is there a
current .bak file in the out queue (/var/spool/mailman/out/)

What does 'lsof' show for the process? You might be able to get
something useful from 'gdb' or maybe see something like
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/132058/showing-the-stack-trace-from-a-running-python-application>.

If I had to guess, I'd guess it gets hung waiting for an SMTP response
from the MTA.
