Hi Abhilash, No, I wasn't running mailman on a virtual environment. I will try setting up mailman again. It would have been great if the wiki also mentioned the steps to set-up a virtual environment. IMHO, one can easily google it still mentioning it in the wiki is better. I will be happy to add the documentation for the same.
