[Mailman-Users] List archive failures

[Rae]

Make sure that the user is listed in the server group for mailman. 
Something like this:

mailman:*:1000:LOGIN,www,USER

If you don't have access to the group file, you will need to talk to 
your webhost.

Also check that your archives directory has the mailman:mailman 
permissions ownership set.

Best wishes,
Rae
