Hi,
When starting mailman in a terminal, then it works:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ mailman start Starting Mailman's master runner $ --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But from "cron", it seems to hang. Output of pstree:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- |-cron(3022)---cron(21962)-+-mailman(21986) | `-sendmail(22043)---postdrop(22044) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So it seems, that mailman does not go into the background, and the email with the output is never sent...
I think Abhilash's answer is probably closer to the mark, but there can be issues with running 'mailman' from cron or init scripts which don't set a UTF-8 compatible LANG in the environment as described at <http://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/install.html#runnin...>.
