Hi all, I upgraded to Mailman 2.1.26 on my Ubuntu 18.04 server yesterday. Now
when a new list posting arrives, this process goes to 100% and stays there:

/usr/bin/python /var/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=OutgoingRunner:0:1 -s

What I'm also seeing is in the /var/lib/mailman/qfiles/out directory, there
is a single file whose name keeps changing rapidly (more than once a second):

I can't see anything amiss in the log file. In fact, no output is being added
to them while this process is racing.

Does anybody have suggestions as to what the cause might be, or what I can
do to diagnose the issue?

For now I'm shutting down the mailman service, removing the queue file and
restarting the service.

Many thanks in advance, Warren

P.S. The list has been running since 1994 :-)
