After a supposedly clean install of the latest mailman, I get this error when adding a list (even the initial mailman list):

mailman@orion:~$ bin/newlist mailman Enter the email of the person running the list: someone@deathcon.com Initial mailman password: To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program:

## mailman mailing list mailman: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" <snip>

Hit enter to notify mailman owner...

Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/newlist", line 219, in ? main() File "bin/newlist", line 212, in main msg.send(mlist) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Message.py", line 233, in send self._enqueue(mlist, **_kws) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Message.py", line 244, in _enqueue reduced_list_headers = 1, File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py", line 133, in enqueue os.fsync(msgfp.fileno()) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'fsync'

and I never recieve confirmation, and the lists does not work: Mar 7 01:52:45 mail sm-mta[7671]: i279qjAg007669: to="|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman", ctladdr=mailman@mail.pirk.com (2/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=30685, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable Mar 7 01:52:45 mail sm-mta[7671]: i279qjAg007669: i279qjAg007671: DSN: Service unavailable

Any ideas? -- Steve
