Nothing looked out of place to me. The file is being created correctly, I'm just surprised that mailman would even touch a non-existent as far as its concerned (mailman know not about post.1 and logrotate) unless the file-handler is kept in a constant open state by mailman or something.
When the file is renamed, the inode number and internal file handle do not change. Mailman opens the file on start, and doesn't close it. The file gets renamed, but this change is not relevant to mailman -- it just keeps using the filehandle it's already got. This is why you have to use mailmanctl to stop and restart mailman.
