So, in Mark's suggestion, this exception occurs after you've called
x.setUp()?  Or does that call succeed?  If it does succeed, don't call
x.tearDown(), but instead go to a different shell on the same machine and try
to `telnet localhost 9025`.  What happens then?

You could try changing the port that the testing framework uses to list for
SMTP (and other) connections.  That is set in the file
src/mailman/testing/testing.cfg.  Does it help if you change the smtp_port
value?

Do you have any kind of local firewall set up?  What OS are you using?

Cheers,
