[Beyer, Clay]

Disregard that last email... I wasn't looking in the appropriate
directory. Sorry

apt-get purge mailman, then delete files in /var/lib/mailman,
/etc/mailman, /usr/lib/mailman, /usr/share/mailman and
/usr/share/doc/mailman (I think that is it).  Purge should do all this
for you (especially if you haven't touched any list config).

On the other hand, that is a strange error you got, and suggests you may
have another underlying issue.  If you haven't got anything else on the
box, you may just want to reinstall with the latest Lenny minimal server
install and work upwards.

Using the Tarball is easy enough, though I always use the Debian package
because I never have any issues with it.

Thanks.
Andrew.
