Did you add hash:/var/lib/mailman/date/aliases to the alias_maps setting in your Postfix main.cf? > What is strange is that in the graphical web based administration > interface to my VPS, all the permissions appear set correctly, as far > as I know, on /var/lib/mailman because I am seeing list as the group and > root as the user on all the directories.

I have no idea why your file management GUI would show you one thing and check_perms something else. what does command line "ls -l" show? Are you running check_perms as root? If so, and for whatever reason, check_perms doesn't fix it, you can always do chgrp list /var/lib/mailman/* Also, if your Mailman user:group is list:list, that is what you should set the user:group of /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases* to. See the section just below the warning box at <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node10.html> for some information on icons, although the default setting IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/' seems to be correct for many apache installations. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
