I am posting the output from "sudo postconf -n" in a following post to keep it separate from my answers here for clarity's sake. I tried to find the mm_cfg.py file but couldn't locate it. A spotlight search in OS X returned no entries under this name. Even a spotlight search under mailman returned no entries.

I created the list using Apple's GUI and then used Mailman's web interface to configure and change some settings according to the needs of the list I created. > See <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node12.html> and its > subsections 6.1.1 and 6.1.2.
