These kinds of problems often result because mailman sends via SMTP to
(by default) 'localhost' and there is a conflict because for example,
the MTA is configured to accept mail from an IPv4 local host
(127.0.0.1/n) and not from an IPv6 local host (::1), but 'localhost' is
defined in /etc/hosts as the 'wrong' one.
