I am having problems creating a mailing list with MM3 ALPHA.

TypeError: invalid arguments
What should I do?
I'll try to fix this later today. The problem is that I've enabled
unicode literals in all the source files, but Python's standard
optparse.py module does not allow unicode options (I consider this a
bug in the module, may or may not get fixed for Python 2.6). The
solution is to wrap the option specs in str().
The other problem is that the command line scripts are not well
tested. Eventually I'll add unit tests for those.
