Right.  So probably safer to reinstall.  Which I did.  That appears 
to have repaired the problem of  /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman 
previously being a directory.

Now when attempting to create the original 'mailman' list, i'm getting

	illegal name mailman at postfix

despite having the same stuff in default.py and mm_cfg.py as 
previously (explicitly set to ns2.greenbuilder.com) and even when 
specifying the list name in the newlist command as 
mailman at ns2.greenbuilder.com.  Argh!  What am I missing here?
