Package: mailman
Version: 2.1.5-8sarge5
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss
an incompatibility problem between python 2.4 and the mailman version
in stable is causing loss of every messages sent on mailman lists.
Error log is full of "decoding unicode is not supported" exceptions. I
think the problem is fixed in newer mailman upstream version.

As seen from your system data included below, you're runing the python
package from unstable on a stable system. That indeed does not work, and
is not a supported configuration by Debian.
We support running mailman from stable with python from stable.
We support running mailman from unstable with python from unstable.
We do not support any other combination of the two.
I'm closing this bug.
