Well, that's what they used to call the $64000 question. These are all
Berkeley Database .db files, which I've never worked with before. If I
knew how to read these files (and understand their content, and edit
them where necessary) I might be able to solve the whole problem from there.
Apparently this server already has a package called db4-utils installed.
I don't know whether these are enough. It's not clear whether there
are normal man pages for them.

Yes, I saw these; that's why I wrote in my first post, "I realize this
may conceivably be a Postfix issue, or even a Plesk issue, but I thought
someone here might be able to guess the answer."
I would most like to find out how to get into those .db files. Failing
that, I wonder if it would do any good to delete the site list from the
command line and recreate it using Plesk (which seems to produce usable
lists on this system). But can this be done safely? Doesn't it say
somewhere that Mailman won't run if the site list doesn't exist? (It
would have to go out of existence briefly in order to recreate it.)
