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?
