There's a long thread about this already on the freebsd-ports@ list,
starting with this message:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2020-April/118351.html
and there's this PR:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225543
The problem is that mailman3 is apparently badly documented; has been
rewritten in a way significantly incompatible with existing mailman2
setups and despite being 5 years old, is still missing some important
functionality that mailman2 has.
Cheers,
Matthew
