Did you try to install Mailman 2.0.3 from scratch ? I'm a new user of
 mailman, and everything is OK for me with it, no problems at the moment.

With a few scripts, you'll be able to keep you lists&archives from your
 "old" installation.

I usually do not like "upgrade" options. Is the mailman one OK ??
