This FAQ entry repeats the docs - I tried setting the permissions to
"mailman:mailman" but this did not work either.

There seem to be a few problems at work:

- The check_perms script is setting the ownership of the files to "root",
when the docs say they should be "mailman".

- Even when set to mailman:mailman, postalias still throws an error.

Something strange that I have found is that if you delete the *.db files,
postalias seems to recreate them, but these *.db files do not map the
permissions of the original alias files (the virtual-mailman.db file is
owned by "apache" for example).

Can anybody send me an "ls -al" from a working mailman setup, so that I
can see what the permissions should look like?

Regards,
Graham
