I've done as you suggested but I keep getting the following messages every
few minutes:
Subject: Cron <root at mailgate> /usr/bin/python -S /var/mailman/cron/qrunner
Body: /usr/bin/python: can't open file '/var/mailman/cron/qrunner'
Here are the contents of the crontab.in file
# At 8AM every day, mail reminders to admins as to pending requests.
# They are less likely to ignore these reminders if they're mailed
# early in the morning, but of course, this is local time... ;)

David,
This will get your cron jobs reset.
Remember, they are running as user 'mailman'.
as root or mailman user, run:
crontab -u mailman -r
crontab -u mailman mailman_dir/cron/crontab.in
The first command will remove all the mailman cron jobs.
The second will put in just the 2.1 cron jobs.
Note that your "mailman_dir" may be /var/local/mailman (or something
else), instead of the default source install of /usr/local/mailman.
