I keep getting around this by creating symlinks to the pid file and then the stop works, but it's getting silly. It seems like mailman just assumes CWD + /var/ + master.pid must be the location. Once I realized this, I found I can do "mailman stop" so long as I'm only in /opt/mailman/ (since it'd then add /var/master.pid). But that seems a little nonsensical.
That is the normal expected behavior if devmode is enabled. Check your configs for this.
I don't think
devmodehas anything to do with this, it only disables sending out emails by accident and routes all emails to a pre-defined address. Haven't looked at the relevant portion of the source so I might be wrong.
That’s correct.
The [paths.*] sections are what control the file system layout, and [mailman]layout is what defines which of the [paths.*] sections to use.
