/usr/local/bin/python: can't open file '/home/mailman/cron/qrunner'
Ok, I keep getting this in my mailman user's inbox. What's it mean?

You do not say but I'm assuming you are running Mailman 2.0.x
As part of your installation procedure you should have installed a cron table, probably the one in $prefix/Mailman/cron/crontab.in, for your mailman UID. In that crontab should be a line that reads something like:
<quote>
- /usr/local/bin/python -S /home/mailman/cron/qrunner </quote>
You can check this with the crontab command.
I think the email may be cron telling you that it cannot open the qrunner script file being referred to by the crontab entry.
Doing an ls -l on $prefix/cron would have the following line in the response if your Mailman installation is OK:
<quote> -rw-r--r-- 1 mailman mailman 12044 Jul 30 11:41 qrunner </quote>
Running $prefix/bin/check_perms might clear the problem
