The exim/mailman HOWTO says:-
> The exim configuration is built so that a list created within mailman
> automagically appears to exim without the need for additional alias
> files etc to be changed.

or to put it another way
DONT TOUCH THE ALIASES FILE - IF YOU DO THAT EXIM USES THE DEFAULT PIPE 
TRANSPORT WHICH PROBABLY HAS NO (OR THE WRONG) USER/GROUP ASSIGNED TO IT

I'll mod the howto as soon as I get the chance to put this in in huge 
flashing letters at top and bottom of the document.
