I would probably do this by editing Mailmamn/Queue/CommandRunner.py
along the lines of

That will help, and also be sure to set respond_to_post_requests to No
on the General Options admin page.
Also, if your Mailman is 2.1.15 (or newer), you can set
RESPONSE_INCLUDE_LEVEL = 0
in mm_cfg.py.
# This controls how much of the original message is included in automatic
# responses to email commands. The values are:
# 0 - Do not include any unprocessed or ignored commands. Do not include
# the original message.
# 1 - Do not include any unprocessed or ignored commands. Include only the
# headers from the original message.
# 2 - Include unprocessed and ignored commands. Include the complete
original
# message.
