I am suddenly seeing hundreds of errors in my mailmanweb and uwsgi logfiles:
1. mailmanweb.log has hundreds of such lines:

Any clues as to what needs to be done to mitigate the above?
A web crawler is issuing GETs for those URLs which only allow POST. If
you look in your web server logs, you can find the IPs they are coming
from. If it's only a few, you can block them with a firewall or using
access controls in your web server. If its a compliant web crawler, you
may be able to use robots.txt to stop it. Also see
