Using MacOS X Server is not necessarily the best idea if using
Mailman is your goal. See

for more information, especially the links at the end.
It appears that most people who want to use Mailman on MacOS X
Server end up ripping out the Apple-supplied custom version and
instead installing the standard version from our tarballs. If you're
going to go that route, you might as well do that on MacOS X Client
as opposed to spending lots of extra money for MacOS X Server.
