No, you're not slow: Mailman can be a real pain in serial port.
- It'd be helpful to know what MTA you're using (Sendmail, Postfix, or
whatever), because that'll impact your local setup.
- What version of Mailman did you install? The latest rpm I can find
is 2.1.5-7. Is that close?

Creation of the mailman account is handled by the rpm. Actually, the
mailman package has a ton of pre- and post-install scripting. To see
it all, try
rpm -q --scripts mailman | less

Mailman is so heavily tied into your system's web and mail
infrastructures that it's difficult to guess what 'set of
instructions' you want. I'd be happy to try to help, but specific
questions would help me understand where you're stuck.
