I looked at some of the links and they are right. I assume the rest
are too.

However, when I create a newlist, it is made with the same wrong
permissions, but running
bin/check_perms doesn't report it. So, I'm guessing that all I need to
do is set www-data:list
on the list whenever I create a new list.


Exactly which directories/files get incorrect owner:group? What exactly
is the incorrect owner:group? Is the superordinate directory group
'list' and SETGID?

root@errol:/var/lib/mailman/archives# ll
drwxrws--- 14 www-data list 4096 2011-07-29 10:48 private/
drwxrwsr-x  2 root     list 4096 2011-07-29 10:48 public/


Note that in general the owner is irrelevant but the group should
always be 'list'. The only place owner matters is on the single
directory /var/lib/mailman/archives/private and only if it is not o+x.
See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/tYA9> and the installation
manual at <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node9.html> for further
information.

And it works. I tested it this time instead of just assuming. The archives appear for
both aaa and xxx lists. Thanks.

drwxrws--- 14 www-data list 4096 2011-07-29 10:48 ./
drwxrwsr-x  4 root     list 4096 2011-07-20 10:38 ../
drwxrwsr-x  2 root     list 4096 2011-07-29 10:48 aaa/
drwxrwsr-x  2 root     list 4096 2011-07-29 10:48 aaa.mbox/
drwxrwsr-x  2 www-data list 4096 2011-07-20 10:39 mailman/
