You should be aware that blindly restarting Mailman can result in duplicate messages to list members and possibly other issues. In particular if outgoing runner is processing a message and has already delivered one or more chunks to the MTA, a restart will cause outgoing runner to stop and upon restart, deliver to the entire recipient list resulting in duplicates for those recipients already sent to the MTA.
