I am running Mailman on an Xserve running Mac OS X Server 10.3.9. The version of Mailman is the one included with Mac OS X Server 10.3.9. (It's 2.1.2.)

I am aware of this page and checked it before sending my request for help. The page didn't provide any information that addressed my issue, as far as I could tell.
The relevant part of that FAQ is the part that says
All other support issues relating to using the Apple-provided versions of Mailman under MacOS X should be first directed to Apple, since they are the ones that modified the Mailman installation to suit their environment and they have not shared their changes with us.
There are other FAQ articles
Sorry, I sent that before I finished it. I meant to say
There are other FAQ articles such as <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.014.htp> that may have been helpful, but we don't know if they are applicable to the Mac OS-X Server Mailman or not because it is a modified version of our package, and we don't know what the mods are.
WRT to mailmanctl, apparently the Mailman qrunners were running at some time and then stopped. I don't know how they were started in the first place or why they stopped. Perhaps a reboot of the server would have started them again, perhaps not, but IMO, the fact that all this is not documented for you is Apple's failure, not ours.
I think I can understand your frustration, and I am not trying to be unsympathetic. If you had installed our package, and found our installation manual lacking, we would do our best to supplement it or improve it. However, we really can't create documentation for packages whose details we have even less information about than you do. </rant>
