You want to run the "admin" and "admindb" cgi's using https, but all the other Mailman cgi's (like listinfo) using http...
I don't think you can do that with the current versions, at least not without modifying the code. This does seem like it would be a simple hack to the code though.... Yes. I just peaked at the code, and you could easily add a new variable to ~mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py - something like Admin_URL and Admindb_URL. Then hack Admin.py and Admindb.py so that they used those URL values instead of the default.
