At this point, you don't know whether "test" works or not. Mailman does not send a confirmation of list creation. It has no idea when you will get around to adding the aliases and updating them, so it wisely chooses to wait.
Now login to the admin site (or listinfo site) and add your email address to the list as a user and make sure you have "send welcome message" checked. If you get the welcome message your halfway to knowing that your list works just fine. The next test is to send an email to the list and see if you get it. Done.
