Bug Description

Currently, there is no notification that mailing lists are waiting for approval. A mailing list expert has to poll +mailinglists to see if there are lists waiting for approval. It would be much better if the mailing list experts could get an email once a day, with a listing of the pending requests. This email should link to the +mailinglists page for convenience.

Actually, it would be even better if a notification was sent as soon as a team requested a mailing list.

I agree with Francis - a daily report is no better than polling once per day (if this is part of the responsibilities of the mailing list team it's reasonable to expect them to do so), and a mail-on-request is much better, as it means someone could respond almost immediately if timezones permit.
