Well, I had added the group mailman before configuring mailman, as per 
installation instructions.
It is there, and I can see it with a gui interface (I run Mandrake 
10.1). But, for some reason, mailman cannot find it.

If you have any leads as to why, I'll provide with any necessary 
information.

Thank you for your time and help!
