Mailman v. 2.1.12 -> Mac OS 10.4.11
Tried to configure, and got the following results in config.log under Core Tests:
configure:1714: checking for --with-python configure:1726: result: no configure:1733: checking for python configure:1751: found /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python configure:1764: result: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python configure:1774: checking Python interpreter configure:1792: result: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python configure:1796: checking Python version configure:1829: result: 2.6.4 configure:1833: checking Python's email package configure:1866: result: ok configure:1872: checking that Python has a working distutils configure:1921: result: yes configure:1969: checking for a BSD-compatible install configure:2025: result: /usr/bin/install -c configure:2036: checking whether make sets $(MAKE) configure:2061: result: no configure:2068: checking for true configure:2087: found /usr/bin/true configure:2100: result: /usr/bin/true configure:2110: checking for --without-gcc configure:2128: result: no configure:2189: checking for gcc configure:2219: result: no configure:2286: checking for cc configure:2333: result: no configure:2389: checking for cl.exe configure:2419: result: no configure:2448: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I didn't get very far. I thought Mailman only required Python?
Is there anyone on this list who has successfully got Mailman running on Mac OS?

You have to install the developer tools. This package is usually under optional installs on the OS install disk.

If it's not immediately obvious what you need to install, I recommend you just install xcode and that should take care of installing all the necessary bits.
I have in the past had Mailman running on Mac OS as a personal test build environment, but none of my live, production servers are OS X.

As Mark posted, you need to install the developer tools.
Also, search the archives as I have posted detailed instructions on installing Mailman on Mac OS X. There is a version for Tiger (10.4) I posted on 7/17/05.
