/etc/mailman.cfg should be owned by mailman? I checked my primary mailserver, my laptop, and my new Mailman box. ALL files in /etc (except links, which are lrwxrwxrwx and I didn't check what they point to) are owned by root.root or owned by root.<other> and not group writable, except one, the directory /etc/ mailman/, which is owned by root.list and is group writable (drwxrwsr-x). Are you saying that Mailman should be able to change its own config file?
It looks like your Mailman user is 'list'. That is the user that should be running mailman commands.
This may be "off the wall" but is the mailman you installed perhaps a Debian/Ubuntu Mailman 2.1 package? If so, you are reading the wrong docs and posting to the wrong list.
