 Wouldn't a person need to be a member of the "mailman" list to be able

    Users don't send e-mail to that address.

They do if it is the "If you are having trouble using the lists, please contact" address, which is what it defaults to.

                                      That doesn't seem like a good
 solution for help concerning mailman.  What if a person wants help
 learning to subscribe?


Then they either send e-mail to the address which is specific to the mailing list that they have a question about (e.g., listname-request, or whatever), or they use the information available on the respective web page.

The site-wide mailing list is not a normal mailing list. It's only purpose is to be used in managing the accounts of users whose e-mail addresses are bouncing.
