Assume you install refers to /home/mailman
and you use Exim 4.

Did you try this with Exim:

------------------------------------------------------------> SNIP
# General section
MAILMAN_HOME=/home/mailman
# wrapper script for mailman
MAILMAN_WRAP=MAILMAN_HOME/mail/mailman
# user and group for mailman
MAILMAN_UID=8
MAILMAN_GID=12

# Router section
###############################
# Mailman Router
###############################
mailman_router:
    driver = accept
    domains = <Your Domains>
    require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck
    local_part_suffix_optional
    local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \
                        -confirm+* : -join : -leave : \
                        -owner : -request : -admin
    transport = mailman_transport


# Transport section
############################################# 
# Mailman Transport
#############################################
mailman_transport:
  driver = pipe
  command = MAILMAN_WRAP \
            '${if def:local_part_suffix \
            {${sg{$local_part_suffix}{-(\\w+)(\\+.*)?}{\$1}}} \
            {post}}' \
            $local_part
  current_directory = MAILMAN_HOME
  home_directory = MAILMAN_HOME
  user = MAILMAN_UID
  group = MAILMAN_GID

------------------------------------------------------------> SNIP

Restart Exim.
Thats all you need at first.
