OK, now I'm really confused. I thought you said when you went to
http://<realhostname>.domain.tld/pipermail/transferlist/ you got the
above error, and if you went to
http://mailman.domain.tld/pipermail/<some_new_list> you got to the
archive.

Are you saying that that is correct, but going to an 'old list' archive
using either host name gives the 403? If that is the case, it must be
a permission issue. Check the group and permissions in the
archives/private/ directory for both old and new lists. If all that
looks OK, it might be a SeLinux issue. Search the archives with
http://www.google.com/search?&q=site%3Amail.python.org+inurl%3Amailman-users+selinux
for more on this.
