You will need to enable the "cron" jobs that handle these various events.
The active crontab for mailman is at /var/cron/tabs/mailman, but you
shouldn't edit that directly. Go to /usr/share/mailman, edit crontab.in
to what you want, then from that directory, run "sudo crontab -u mailman
crontab.in" That installs the edited version.
There is also an utility called CronnIX that you can install to help
edit and enable these jobs.
Hope this helps.

I'm running the version of Mailman that came with my Panther server
software. Postfix and Cyrus are running fine. Mailman is running
fine with the following exception: Any process depending on a
specific time of the day is not working. Digests will go out but
only when the size limit is reached. Although the web admin forms
show that my digests are also set to go out daily when there is
data in them, this does not happen. Also, daily reminders that
normally go out once a day for pending list management attention
are not being sent. Pending list management needs are sent to the
list moderators when they happen, but daily reminders are not. I'm
wondering if perhaps the master-qrunner locks for my Mailman
install are corrupted or stuck on a message someplace. Would I be
safe to delete (actually, moving them outside of Mailman's sight)
these qrunner locks in Mailman's directory and let it rebuild them?
Or should I look elsewhere at a specific log for a clue to what is
going on. It is not just a specific list, all of my lists are
having the same problem.
