Leaving out the "grep" to get the header ("ps -C mailmanctl" would have 
been better to start with) I see that that column is headed "TTY".  I 
guess the question mark means the process is not tied to a terminal and 
so will continue running even if all users log out.  Which is the 
behavior you want, so the problem must be elsewhere.

Now you need help from somebody who actually knows how Mailman works.
