The mailman3-web cron task ([ -f /usr/bin/django-admin ] && flock -n /var/run/mailman3-web/cron.minutely /usr/share/mailman3-web/manage.py runjobs minutely) was filling the mailbox due to 2 issues: 
  1. /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django_q/conf.py:139: UserWarning: Retry and timeout are misconfigured. Set retry larger than timeout, 
        failure to do so will cause the tasks to be retriggered before completion. 
        See https://django-q.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configure.html#retry for details.

  2. System check identified some issues:

WARNINGS:
django_mailman3.MailDomain: (models.W042) Auto-created primary key used when not defining a primary key type, by default 'django.db.models.AutoField'.
        HINT: Configure the DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD setting or the DjangoMailman3Config.default_auto_field attribute to point to a subclass of AutoField, e.g. 'django.db.models.BigAutoField'.

/etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py has been updated with:

DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD='django.db.models.AutoField'

Q_CLUSTER = {
   'timeout': 45, # retry default value is 60 seconds, timeout must be smaller
                  # see /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/django_q/conf.py TIMEOUT/RETRY
}

After this update, the cron task has no output.

`/etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py` isn't generated by ansible.
