+1 to auto-discard after a period of time (I'm ok with >= 30 days; choose as you
see fit). +1 to suggesting to list admins to set auto-discard on their own lists if they
aren't going to pay attention to the nagmails.

Hey,
in /var/lib/mailman/data/ there are an ass-tonne of messages held in
various approval queues.
This morning there were a total of 21778 messages waiting for various
lists. Some of them are NOT young.
Since they are just files that live in that dir - how would folks feel
about setting a 2-month limit? If a message is not
approved/discarded/rejected/etc by the mailing list admin w/i 2months then
tmpwatch it away?
it, ultimately, makes mailman run better.
As for the four or five lists that I run/co-run, I/we usually don't
even look into those held messages because that will take so much
time.
Just if this helps.
