check_perms seems to be happy:
/usr/local/mailman# bin/check_perms 
Warning: Private archive directory is other-executable (o+x).
   This could allow other users on your system to read private archives.
   If you're on a shared multiuser system, you should consult the
   installation manual on how to fix this.
No problems found

We might have to check manually:
all mailman processes run as user mailman

drwxrwsr-x 4 root mailman 4096 2007-11-11 15:30 archives//
drwxrwsr-x 2 root mailman 4096 2007-11-13 22:55 public/

interesting
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root mailman 43 2007-11-13 22:55 
/usr/local/mailman/archives/public/OURLIST -> 
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/OURLIST/

withing OURLIST there is some confusion:
drwxrwsr-x   2 root    mailman  12288 2008-02-10 19:11 2007-September/
-rw-r--r--   1 root    mailman 481377 2008-02-10 19:11 2007-September.txt
-rw-r--r--   1 root    mailman  92418 2008-02-07 03:27 2007-September.txt.gz
drwxrwsr-x   2 mailman mailman   4096 2008-02-10 19:11 2008-February/
-rw-rw-r--   1 mailman mailman  33312 2008-02-10 19:11 2008-February.txt
-rw-rw-r--   1 root    mailman   4110 2008-02-10 03:27 2008-February.txt.gz
drwxrwsr-x 162 root    mailman   4096 2008-02-09 11:12 attachments/
drwxr-s---   2 root    mailman  12288 2008-02-10 19:12 database/
-rw-rw-r--   1 root    mailman  14942 2008-02-10 19:12 index.html

The explanation is simple. I migrated (had to) the list by copying files.
What are the proper settings here?
