Check both your Mailman and Apache error logs. It doesn't seem that
you're even getting to the wrappers (/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/*),
but if you are, it could be a group mismatch error - see
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq06.016.htp

Check the permissions on /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/. On my system, the
directory and all its files are owner:group = root:mailman and the
directory is rwxrwsr-x and the files are rwxr-sr-x. the setgid bits
and mailman group are critical. Granted, check_perms should check
this, but ??

It could also be a SELinux issue if that is applicable in your
environment.
