$ ls -lh /var/spool/mailman/data/aliases*

That's the mailman group that the OpenBSD install sets up.  There is also the 
_mailman user.

Command died with status 2:
    "/usr/local/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request gravitar". Command output:
    Group mismatch error.  Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be
    executed as group "_mailman", but the system's mail server executed the
    mail script as group "www".  Try tweaking the mail server to run the 
script
    as group "_mailman", or re-run configure,  providing the command line
    option `--with-mail-gid=www'.
