where do I check for this? /usr/lib/mailman/cron or does this actually go into like /etc/cron.daily?
Assuming /usr/lib/mailman is your installation directory, /usr/lib/mailman/cron has the actual scripts and a crontab.in which is meant as the default to install.
Depending on how your Mailman was installed, the actual crontab may be mailman's crontab (usually, /var/spool/cron/mailman) which can be listed by
crontab -u mailman -l
or if your crontab doesn't have a -u option
su - mailman crontab -l
Or, the crontab may be in a subdirectory of /etc/cron.d in which case it has to be listed or edited directly.
under /usr/lib/mailman/cron there is an entry in crontab.in that shows gate_news for every 5 mins. I know messages are getting out but I have yet to see something come in from a newsgroup to the list.
As I said above, this is just the default to install. The one in this directory is not actually used.
