I'm having trouble with the web create interface, in that unless I set the data/aliases and data/aliases.db to be owned by apache:mailman, I'll get an error after I use the web interface to create a list. The list is still created, and the aliases added to the data/aliases file, but the list created email does not send and I get the following returned in my web browser:
Bug in Mailman version 2.1.2

Everything that I've read, including the archives of this list, says that the owner on this file should be mailman:mailman. Everything seems to work with the creation if I set it to apache:mailman, so I'm wondering if there's anything wrong with doing this. And anyone have an explanation why it doesn't work correctly?
I'm using Mailman version 2.1.2, python version 2.2.2, on a system running Red Hat Linux 9.
