Heh, first hurdle:

The instructions at
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-June/037518.html
start with

  Create /usr/local/sbin/mailman.aliases with these commands:

  /bin/cp /home/mailman/data/aliases /etc/mailman.aliases
  /usr/bin/newaliases

but I have no /home/mailman/, nor any /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases
(which is what I suppose is intended) on my system.

Perhaps /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases should contain

  ## mailman mailing list
  mailman:            "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman"
  mailman-admin:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman"
  mailman-bounces:    "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman"
  mailman-confirm:    "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman"
  mailman-join:       "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman"
  mailman-leave:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman"
  mailman-owner:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman"
  mailman-request:    "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman"
  mailman-subscribe:  "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman"
  mailman-unsubscribe:"|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman"
