Another way of looking at the same problem is: why don't you keep 
mailman on the web server, and just use SMTPDirect for mailman to call 
through to your mail server to send mail out? I've also found it 
surprisingly easy to run fetchmail on a web server to pull down 
incoming mail from the mail server -- about the only thing you lose is 
the tight integration of mailbox creation, so you might have to 
manually create all those xxx-admin, xxx-bounces mailboxes.
