Can't confirm subscriptions

Hello All,
OS = Redhat 7.3 Python = 2.2.2 Mailman = 2.0.13 (RPM) {note I tried from 2.1.5 source code first but didn't get even this far so I backed it off}
I seem to be having very similar issues as described in...
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2000-March/004095.html
Also, while I see a list of addresses awaiting confirmation sitting in /var/log/mailman/subscribe, I do not see them under the "members" link in the admin web page (just empty).
To be clear, I am able to initiate a subscription request, however when I try to confirm it via email as instructed by the Mailman email message I recieve, I get nothing back at all. My sendmail log looks like this when I try...
to="|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test1", ctladdr=<test1-request@basspond.com> (8/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=prog, pri=31016, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent
Thanks, Mike

Problem solved!
While wating for a reply on this problem, I configured the crontabs as described in the INSTALL file. I then received my "Welcome" messages on all of the subscribed accounts shortly after. I am also able to successfully post to the list!
It is also important to note that my problem also looked similar to...
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2001-February/009798.html
...which is the second occurance of this problem I found in the Mailman archives that went unaswered. I'm just mentioning it now so that it can be of help to folks in the future.
Best, Mike Flaherty
