[Mailman-Users] Duplicated Text

I recently installed Mailman 2.1.1 on my RedHat 8 system (using 
Sendmail).  I find that the email command "help" returns a message with 
duplicated text in it (see below).

Can anyone clue me in to what's happening here?

Thanks!

P.S.  I searched the mailman-users archive, but couldn't find anything.
