First place to check is the log files for Mailman: ~mailman/logs/.. Then run through your MTA's log files.
If you don't find any errors logged or bounced/refused messages then you need to look at your firewall rules and the setup of your MTA.
Are you installing this on a Linux box? What Distribution? Red Hat adds some interesting security "features" to Sendmail that need to be circumvented for Mailman to work properly.
Good Luck!

I downloaded the last version from the list.org site, installed it with no problem, configured the cron job and created a test list. The notification to the owner of the list was correctly sent.
The problem is when I try to suscribe or ask for help to the list (sending a mail to test-request@myhost with the subjects 'subscribe' or 'help') never receive a confirmation message or any answer at all. The mailman queue directory is empty, so I guess that mailman is not receiving the mails.
Mailman is configured in SMTPDirect mode (the default mode).The host in which is running has a web server, firewall and a basic sendmail config where everything that comes from the inner network is relayed to our ISP smtp server. Can somebody explain me how the SMTPDirect mode works? It´s only for the outgoing mail? What can be my problem?? Please give me stuff to try, I've spended more than 2 days and still nothing, even worse, no more ideas. Somebody help me please!!
