Sendmail should be logging this, I think.  Have a look in your syslog.

Barring that, I guess you could instrument Mailman like this:

Open ~mailman/Mailman/Utils.py in your favorite editor.  Look for this
piece of code, in the TrySMTPDelivery() function:

    try:
        conn = smtplib.SMTP(mm_cfg.SMTPHOST)
        # Do the EHLO/HELO manually so we can check for DSN support

Just under the "conn = ..." line, insert

	conn.set_debuglevel(1)

to enable debugging.  Save the file, and send a message to the
problematic list.  Debugging output (i.e. a transcript of the entire
SMTP dialogue) should now be in ~mailman/logs/error.  Remember to
remove the debugging line again afterwards.
