I'm not sure I can stretch my memory back to January, but I think the issue was that the genaliases script doesn't create a file with the aliases in them unless you are using Postfix (presumably with the MTA variable set to Postfix). I'm running sendmail and the MTA variable is at the default (i.e., Manual). I think the only way to get a list of all of the aliases is to capture the output of the genaliases script and manually remove the extra comment lines ("To finish creating your mailing list . . .").
I've made some updates to genaliases so that Manual should be more useful. You can now give it a -q/--quiet flag to supppress the non-alias instructions. You would run it like this:
% bin/genaliases -q > /etc/aliases-mailman % newaliases
