thanks - it was *how* to redirect incoming mail I couldn't see how to do...

in the end I discovered that mailman was creating the outgoing files in 
/var/mailman/qfiles/out

mv'ing these did the trick - though mailman seemed unhappy about it and 
didn't send any mails untill after I ran check_db and restarted.

These things alwsy happen when your pushed for time !
