Post the contents of /var/spool/cron/mailman and /etc/cron.d/mailman if
they exist.

No. I can't tell you what you need to do until I see the above
requested crontabs, but editing crontab.in does nothing unless you
subsequently install it.

No. That script is just a sample /etc/init.d/mailman script which is
the script to process "service mailman" commands, but it shouldn't be
run by cron.

cron should not be attempting daily to run any script named mailman.
