  Even better, someone reported the problem!  My thanks to the problem-reporter.

  Sendmail was actually still running.  Sendmail uses syslog for
logging, so a full log partition is not Sendmail's problem.  Mailman,
on the other hand, writes its own logs, and presumably aborted when it
couldn't.  All I had to do was restart Mailman -- after deleting 800
MB or so of Apache logs.
