I have had a similar problem. In my case as well, I had never seen a
problem before Mailman because all my other local apps sent mail via
usr/sbin/sendmail or qmail-inject, and qmail was configured never to relay.
Mailman wants to send mail via an SMTP connection to the local machine, so
you might want to check if you allow connections from 127.0.0.1 to relay
mail. Allowing relaying from localhost solved my problem.
