	Correction to my last post, having checked on another server.
	/etc/aliases is a symlink.  (I had broken this via RCS/ci 
	some time before testing Mailman, and when I put my aliases
	into /etc/mail, no go.)  Have you read the documenttion in
	/usr/local/share/doc/mailman?  I did things via CLI following
	the INSTALL and README file, and you may have to do this 
	as well.
