To elaborate a bit, there are no plans to ever make the 2.1 branch
Python 3 compatible. If you install Mailman 2.1.x from source, you can
configure it to use any Python on the system with the --with-python
option to configure. Downstream packages may or may not provide a way
to use other than the default Python.
