Michael,

You might want to take a look at the article I wrote for AFP548.com on 
installing Mailman under Mac OS X Server: 
<URL:http://www.afp548.com/Articles/mail/python-mailman.html> I don't 
believe there are any steps to the process that are *specific* to Mac OS X 
Server, though you may need to make some adjustments if you're not also 
running Postfix as your MTA. Regardless, I've had Mailman 2.0.8 running 
under Mac OS X Server for several months now and serve a number of lists 
from it without problem.
