I don't mind abusing this bugreport for issues you run into.

That's great and a big step forward :) So at least mailman3 now works on
sysvinit systems! Let's see what's up with mailman3-web ...

The Django app fails at sending a mail. Is the app allowed to send mail
via email backend 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' to the
mail address you gave for your superuser?

The Django app sends a confirmation mail at first login, asking to
verify the mail address of the account. Only afterwards you're allowed
to login as the user.

Cheers,
 jonas
