When someone subscribes to a list. They get the message saying that they will receive an email letting them know when they are approved.

You've probably munged the list admin address, so that all admin notices from Mailman get tossed in the bit bucket.
I did this myself recently, on a new Mailman server I'm setting up. This is not too hard to do -- all it takes is a single typo in the field "The list administrator email addresses. Multiple administrator addresses, each on separate line is okay."
Check your Mailman logs and your MTA logs to see what's going on. If nothing shows up there, you might have your log level turned down too low, or you might have syslogd configured to throw away the more detailed log information htat you need.
There should probably be some internal code within Mailman to detect bounces sent to the list admin address and to deal with them by sending them to a site admin address which is specified in the mm_cfg.py or Defaults.py file(s), and not via the web interface.
