Sorry Mark:
These hundreds of emails are distracting and I have too many irons in the fire
between you and Stephen. That is not a criticism as I greatly appreciate the
help from both of you. Just that I'm having difficulty keeping up with you both.

This is not the crontab you reported at
https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/6WKLM7ARWJ6KW374UUJFTUYSUJV7JNSY/
That one is probably /var/spool/cron/crontabs/mailman and wouldn't show
here because it doesn't contain '/usr/share/mailman3-web/manage.py'.
So the system crontab at /etc/cron.d/mailman3-web is your issue and
should be removed. That will get rid of the cron failure emails.
This was a fresh install of Ubuntu server so the only packages installed so far
are dump/restore, Ubuntu-desktop, MySQL, Postfix, fetchmail and mailman3.
Apache2 comes preinstalled with Ubuntu but there may be others of which I am
currently unaware. As far as I know the only other crontab is for root where I
have the backup jobs scheduled.
0 3 * * 0 /usr/local/sbin/sysbackup
Then the remaining question is how did that crontab get there in the
system crontabs. The only way I know it could have gotten there if you
didn't manually create it is via installation of Ubuntu Mailman packages.
I think you probably also have a django-admin and perhaps other things
in /usr/bin/ and also a /usr/share/mailman-web/ directory which you
don't want or need.
I suggest you do
sudo apt list mailman3 mailman3-web mailman3-full mailman3-doc
and see which of those unwanted packages are installed, and if any,
`sudo apt remove` them.
