You don't need to do this first. It just verifies that the
/u001/mailman/scripts/post script works.

The above errors are presumably from actual mail to mailman-owner and
mailman-bounces however, this mail was generated by mailman in
response to the held (null) post.

And this error is the relevant one. If in fact, it came from the

 sudo -u mail /u001/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman </dev/null

command and not from some mail to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] address which
coincidentally arrived at the same time. See below for more.

These errors are from Mailman's attempt to send a notification of the
held (null) post back to the submitter that is None because the post
was empty.

So we have now verified that the /u001/mailman/scripts/post script
itself works, but that the scripts invoked by the
/u001/mailman/mail/mailman wrapper do not work. Thus the wrapper
itself must be pointing at the wrong scripts directory.

If the wrapper were correct, somewhere in the output from

  strings /u001/mailman/mail/mailman

you should see '/u001/mailman/scripts/'

I think you will see some other path ending in '/scripts/' instead and
that is your problem.
