make sure /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases and ..../data/virtual are
owned by user mailman, as are the *.db versions of the same files.
In my installation, the data directory is group writable by group
mailman.  I assume the port did it that way, as I don't recall
changing the group ownership, but it is possible.

What's the output of:

ls -la /usr/local/mailman/data

on your system?
