You may want to at least glance through the messages in there, since 
that is where users send messages when they are having trouble with the 
server.  (Or set it so that messages from non-members are not held, but 
accepted.)

It sounds like you have an Apache rewrite rule that is matching too 
generously.  If you want to use a rewrite rule to redirect visitors to 
http://www.example.com/mailman on to the listinfo page, make sure it 
doesn't also match /mailman/admindb/mailman.  Try something like:

RedirectMatch ^/mailman[/]*$ http://www.example.com/mailman/listinfo
