Larry & Bryan -- If it helps you at all, I saw the same problems with launchd on my Mailman 2.1.11 install on Mac OS X Server 10.5.5 when we migrated that machine to 10.5 from 10.4. We abandoned launchd in favor of the older /Library/StartupItems/ method and have had no problems since then.

2009-06-18 Thread Bryan Harrison
I've built and installed Mailman 2.12 from current source code and have it running just fine under OS X Server 10.5.7, with on exception, which is not properly speaking a Mailman problem at all. If I start Mailman from the CLI, using /usr/share/mailman/bin/ mailmanctl -s start, all is well.
