Hi,
Installed mailman and have confirmed that everything works fine…except the “If you are having trouble using the lists, please contact mailman@example.com.” doesn’t send an email that I can find anywhere on the server or in my accounts…any thoughts on how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Happy New Year!

mailman@example.com is the posting address for the 'mailman' site list. Set that list's Privacy options... -> Sender filters -> generic_nonmember_action to Accept and join the list.

Check your logs: there may be a delivery attempt to the 'mailman' list, which I'd guess has no members, and may have posting restrictions in effect.
Subscribe yourself to the mailman (site-)list, check the sender filters, and try again?
(If you're using a competent MTA (^___^),
'exim -D -bt mailman@example.com', may be useful.)
I'm presuming here that you've obfuscated your domain, and aren't from the IANA.
