The messages were constantly re-appearing in the "out" queue with different file names (I assume they were going via the retry queue).
First check to ensure there are no files in Mailman's var/templates/ directory that are not readable by the Mailman user. That can cause this issue.
After multiple restarts trying to get some debug information, the hard loop seems to have stopped recurring, and the messages are sat in the "shunt" queue. They've not been delivered to recipients, but they are in the hyperkitty archive.
The shunted messages should have a SHUNTING entry with an exception and
traceback in mailman.log. If there were files unreadable by Mailman in
Mailman's var/templates/ directory and you have corrected that, you can
move the shunted messages back to their original queue with mailman unshunt.
