Note that the stance on cPanel is not that we *won't* support Mailman
users on cPanel, it's that we usually *can't*.  The point of cPanel is
to ensure that if you can do it, you can do it easily by yourself, and
if you can't do it, you can't do it *at all* by yourself, and neither
can we -- all we can do is tell you to get in touch with your
provider.

Since you've already gotten in touch with your provider, the rest *is*
within the competence of Mailman-Users to advise.  Except ...

It would be nice if your provider's admin would join the conversation
here.  Have you suggested that?  He should be interested.  After all,
it's "his" host that is going to be running this script!
