Strike that! It does seem to be a cron problem, though I still don't know how to fix
it. Once I gave the queue command:
/usr/local/Python-2.0/python -S /usr/local/apache/htdocs/mailman/cron/qrunner
all the messages got sent. But why isn't my mailman crontab file working, and why
aren't the messages being sent immediately, instead of being queued?
But I'm greatly relieved to have found the problem, or at least a way to fix it (with
a different cron approach (e.g., using /etc/crontab) than the installed file??).
