Good morning,

We had a ticket come in this morning that I could use some guidance on, posted 
below.  The ticket had screen shots of the original messages and the 
authorization messages sent to the list admins. I can confirm that the messages 
each had unique eml attachments.  Are there log files that show the moderator 
approvals?Thanks in advance for any assistance as I try to dig on this 
oddity..  

“It appears there was an issue with our Mailman listserv today and I am hoping 
you may be able to shed more light on why/how it happened. We use mailman to 
manage the “(redacted list name)” which was used to distribute a message about 
commencement plans to academic and administrative leadership today. We got the 
original request but the message didn't appear in the moderation queue (it said 
there was nothing there). We needed to make some changes to the message so we 
had it resent for moderation and approved it through. The second message went 
out fine, but now the first message has also gone out without anyone approving 
it.”



Possibly the poster cancelled the post before the moderator looked. The 
poster also gets a notice with a link to cancel the post.


As Odhiambo says, check Mailman's vette log.
