Hardy had to be removed from my pc for various reasons; so I cannot say why mailman didn't work. I had tried complete removal afterwards and re-install but nothing has worked. It would have been nice if it did though but i will not be running hardy on this pc; i will install hardy on my server in a couple of weeks and if encounter the same problem i will make sure to post the bug information.
