Are you by any chance doing some redirection of list URLs to SSL?  If so,
that can cause your POST data to get lost and would cause something similar
to what you describe.  But that's just a WAG.

There should be some basic steps to follow to to some final config for the
RPM based install.  In redhat, that should be somewhere around
/usr/share/doc/mailman-2.0.13.  I think they put a file called README.REDHAT
there, but it's been a while since I used a stock redhat rpm of mailman so
YMMV.

If you have the ability to, upgrading to mailman 2.1.x is highly
recommended.  Many features have been added and bugs squashed since 2.0.13.
If you really like managing things via RPM, you can build your own without
too much trouble, but installing mailman via a tarball is pretty easy and
does ensure that any problems you have aren't caused by a faulty rpm.
That'll make it easy for folks here to help you.
