OSError: [Errno 90] Number of symbolic links encountered during path name traversal exceeds MAXSYMLINKS: '/usr/local/mailman/archives'
From the 'ls' output, both 'archives' and 'lists' appear to be symlinks to themselves. This would explain why MAXSYMLINKS needs to exist and why it is being exceeded.
In answer to your first question, how is the file space on this 'network appliance' made available in your file system? Is it NFS mounted? If so where is it mounted and what is the problem you have in creating the necessary symlinks to it. If not, you will have a real problem putting a symlink in your file system to it.
