It's likely that `python' is not on the default $PATH for boot.local.
Does it work if you run
/path/to/my/python /path/to/my/mailman/bin/mailmanctl start
instead? mailmanctl uses a shebang line of /usr/bin/env to search for
the python executable. I don't want to make mailmanctl autoconf
generated, but JD Bronson donated a boot script that could be made
autoconf'able. I'll check it for Linux compatibility tomorrow and
check it in if it looks good. I'll let others check for compatibility
on other *nixes.
