I am able to trigger this error by sending an email to a list from a nonmember, so the message gets put into held status. Then moderating the message with Action.accept. After that, the message does not get delivered, instead the above error appears in the log.

Regarding last comment, this error does not always appear, but moderator approved message never gets sent, so I think they might be unrelated.

In one sense script_url() is kind of bogus because now that the web ui is separate from the engine, the engine needs a better model for how to calculate its urls. This method is mostly a hold over from Mailman 2.

OTOH, its rather disturbing that you don't have a key in the Domain column of database for foo.example.com. Wait, did you possibly create foo.example.com, and then delete it before this message got put into the virgin queue?

Ah, yep, it happens right at the end of the test suite (our internal tests, not MM3's) which cleans up everything, including the domain entry.

I think what happened, was that before the fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/flufl.lock/+bug/827052 was made, I was looping through and rejecting all pending messages before removing the list and then the domain. Maybe since I was rejecting instead of discarding, it was generating a bounce message for the virgin queue right before deleting the domain entry. This isn't really a problem any more. Sorry if I got some details wrong, I don't fully understand the Mailman pipeline yet.

Yeah, I think this had to be caused by some unsupported external manipulation of the database. The base Runner class will refuse to process any message destined for a mailing list that does not exist, and every mailing list should be associated with an existing domain.

I'm going to mark this one incomplete, but if you find a reproducible test case to show the error, please re-open it.
