Hi Mark,
Thanks for your great help. But despite decades of UNIX experience, my area is not Django (yet). The nub of my question is that I thought you have to have a manage.py file for Django to be able to set up the various affairs, such as making the database migrations and so on. It is that that is eluding me. Apologies for this hopelessly newbie question.
I was impressed with your method of installation in the page referenced, and I have foolwed that closely. But I am puzzled about the build script. If I run as user mailman, not root, it wanted to install under /usr. which of course results in permission denied. I had to modify the script to say this:
python setup.py install --prefix /opt/mailman/mm/venv
I am concerned that I have also misunderstood something here.

Where is the Django config area for the pip installed modules? It is this that I find obscure.
The short answer is wherever you put it. If you look at <https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%203%20installation%20experience> which Abhilash mentioned, you'll see what I do.
