Mike.

Did you finish going through the INSTALL document to copy the mailman 
script to /etc/init.d and then run it. That starts the mailmanctl 
application that passes email back to Postfix. You do not need the 
wrapper as that is a sendmail app under the older Mailman.

Make sure mailmanctl is running just run "ps -e"  You will probably 
see the mailmanctl and you
will definitely see the python daemons.
