Did you create a Mailman user and group with the same UID and GID's as
the previous system?  Is this upgrade using a different version of
Python?  Did you reset the cron table for the user Mailman? Also, are
your webserver and email server running as the same users/groups as
previously?

If you've checked all that, then have you run:
   /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms -f

In a worse case scenario, you'll simply have to re-install Mailman.  It
should pick up the existing lists and everything should work fine
(assuming you installed from source and that you saved the options you
used with ./configure --options
