I'm not sure about the specific error you are encountering. I've never
used Sphinx on these .tex files. The documentation package is built with
the old Python mkhowto script. This script can be found at
<http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release25-maint/Doc/tools/mkhowto?view=log>.
It has several dependencies, and I don't remember what they all are.

To make the various files from mailman-admin.tex, you do

mkhowto --all --dir /path/to/html/dir mailman-admin.tex

where /path/to/html/dir is the directory to receive the HTML manual.
