Thanks to all who give me your suggestions.
Expecting it helps someone else, here is an abstract of what should be
done in order to advertise a new list.
1.- Under the privacy options, be sure to check on "Advertise this list
when people ask what lists are on this machine" (indeed I had it).

There is no "hard" limit to the number of addresses. I'm going to guess
that your folks have various email addresses that they use (I use about
5). To be on the safe side, you should add all the various addresses
that your admins use to the field (one address per line).

Take a look at the FAQ

You need to reinstall Mailman and use the switch --mail-gid=2 on your
./configure step.

This is really not a bug in Mailman - though I think the new series (ver
2.1.x) checks for this condition and "fixes" it.
I believe this is caused by some Mailers that leave off the From: or
misconfigure it. This issue was discussed in detail on the list about a
year ago.

Hmmm... What OS are you running this on?
To fix this, you have to figure out what Group your MTA (sendmail,
postfix, exim, qmail,etc...) runs as, then reconfigure mailman so that
it knows what group ID should be allowed to run the Wrapper program.
Looks like your system is doing some funky things
You've probably already found this, but just in case - Look on the web
admin pages under Privacy options and make sure that your lists are
Advertised.
If that is already checked, then go back to the General page and make
sure that Base URL is matches your "mysite/mailman/".

Pipermail doesn't do a good job with MIME. You can try setting your
archives to allow MIME. If it still does not work, then you should look
at using an external archiver like MHonArc

You don't have to run MHonArc on the server with the lists, it can run

This is an age-old problem. Some folks use this as an argument to make
the default reply be the sender and not the list. That is one solution,
but not one I like...
Really the best solution is to teach folks the proper way to setup a

Mailman is Open Source, so if you have sysadmin rights to the server
that Mailman is running on, then you can do anything you would like,
including personalizing the standard notices.
The 2.0.x series does not let you do this by default, but you can edit
the Source code.

Check the log files for mailman.
Check the space on the server and make sure none of your volumes is too
