In the log file there are several entries like this:
ERROR 2023-03-09 13:09:34,066 53357 django.request Internal Server Error: /accounts/ signup/ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/core/handlers/exception.py", line 47, in inner response = get_response(request) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 181, in _get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/views/generic/base.py", line 70, in view return self.dispatch(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/utils/decorators.py", line 43, in _wrapper return bound_method(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/allauth/decorators.py", line 18, in wrap resp = ratelimit.consume_or_429(request, action=action, **rl_kwargs) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/allauth/ratelimit.py", line 77, in consume_or_429 return render(request, "429." + app_settings.TEMPLATE_EXTENSION, status=429) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/shortcuts.py", line 19, in render content = loader.render_to_string(template_name, context, request, using=using) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/template/loader.py", line 61, in render_to_string template = get_template(template_name, using=using) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/template/loader.py", line 19, in get_template raise TemplateDoesNotExist(template_name, chain=chain) django.template.exceptions.TemplateDoesNotExist: 429.html
So what is special about this 429.html?

I had some attacks on my wordpress homepage today, I added some IPs to the blacklist of my firewall. At the same time, I got several reports like this:

I suspect that's a coincidence.
Request Method: OPTIONS Request URL: https://lists.eehmke.de/accounts/signup/ Django Version: 3.2.16 Python Executable: /opt/mailman/venv/bin/uwsgi Python Version: 3.9.2 Python Path: ['.', '', '/etc/mailman3', '/usr/lib/python39.zip', '/usr/lib/ python3.9', '/usr/lib/python3.9/lib-dynload', '/opt/mailman/venv/lib/ python3.9/site-packages'] Server time: Thu, 09 Mar 2023 13:09:34 +0100
So it seems there were attempts to register new users but this caused this internal error. Where can I send the complete error message?
I would look in the web server logs to see what the actual accesses were. I'm guessing you'll find that some bot or script kiddies did a GET of /accounts/signup/429.html.
You could also look for more detail in whatever log Django writes. This is defined in Django's settings as LOGGING['handlers']['file']['filename'] and is often Mailman's var/logs/mailmansuite.log. If you followed https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#initial-configur ation it is /opt/mailman/web/logs/mailmanweb.log.
