I found where was the problem....
The items in /var/lib/sympa/bin queue and bouncequeue had the right
permissions RWS but the wrong owner root instead of sympa.
Also the script load_subscribers.pl is wrong as it refers back to the
/home/sympa directory...
I liked when sympa was in /home because then I could save my home directory
or protect it with quotas....
There are also a couple of issues related to the upgrade which is not
performed correctly and the configuration which is not automatically done...
The last problem is I'm looking for a the perl-postgresql-DBD modules to
interface with perl-DBI...
Cheers.

No surprise. Sympa has had major problems for quite a while. I should
suggest you start with the cooker release where I believe a bunch of
problems
have been fixed.
I personally gave up on sympa and installed mailman (from gnu). It's rather
slick, a LOT easier to install, and offers the same functionality, at least
as far as I can determine. The web interface is also fairly easy on the
users.
Good luck,
