I'm not sure what exactly I did, except meticulously go through Kathleen's instructions ONE MORE TIME!
One hint: if you get as far as successfully creating the 'test' list but can't connect to the web portion try two things:
1) make sure you have " " around the your ScriptAlias statements in httpd.conf:
Kathleen has: ScriptAlias /mailman/ /Applications/mailman/cgi-bin/
Should be : ScriptAlias /mailman/ "/Applications/mailman/cgi-bin/"
2) make sure you stop/start Apache in the Sharing System Pref -- so simple, yet so deadly!
I want to thank everyone one both the web-development and mailmanusers lists for all your help and Kathleen for some really great instructions!
Now, is there a way to SEARCH on mailman archives? I don't see it as an option in pipermail ... I'll bet there's a FAQ about this though so I'm going to Google it.
Enjoy!

Is anyone here using Mailman on OS X? I've followed the instructions put together by Kathleen Webb at <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12599.html> but keep getting this when I try to create a 'test' list:
[ibb-80:~] mailman% /Applications/mailman/bin/newlistI could sure use some hints on what might be wrong.
Enter the name of the list: test
Enter the email of the person running the list: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Initial test password:
