Well .. this worked to get rid of the errors ... thank you. However, 
while I see no errors in the maillog, emails sent to mailman get 
delivered TO mailman but the emails are not forwarded to the list users. 
I have restarted mailman and run the cron job manually but still 
nothing. However, I tried to send an email from the command line and did 
not receive that either. I am using Sendmail with MailScanner but mail 
looks like it is being processed in the logs.

ps aux | grep sendmail gives me:

Seems good though not sure about the line "root     17106  0.0  1.4
