Below, you suggested not to use postfix-to-mailman.py.
What should I use if not this? My postfix master.cf file contains the mailman MTA lines toward the bottom...
Mailman unix n n 2 pipe Flags=FR user=list argv=/usr/lib/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py ${nexthop} ${user}
This seems to be making the server go crazy, tons of processes running at once, bogging down the server. Commenting these lines out returns the server to normal operation, but then in my mail.info log file, I have tons of Mail Transport Agent not found.
Please help.

Have successfully set up a Debian server and installed and configured Postfix and have been trying to integrate Mailman. I am receiving the following errors during the apt-get install mailman process:

You clearly don't need qmail-to-mailman.py, and while Debian seems to like postfix-to-mailman.py (which is not distributed even as contributed source by the GNU Mailman project), I don't recommend it.
Again, this is happening during install and it seems like the install is failing or not completing properly. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but continue to receive the same I/O errors. Can anyone assist?
This is a Debian packaging issue. If you wish to install Debian's Mailman package, you'll have to take this up with Debian.
If you download and install the 2.1.13 tarball from <https://launchpad.net/mailman/2.1/2.1.13> or <http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mailman/>, it will be less convenient, but we can help you with any installation issues.
