Above are good.

The above symlink is exactly right for a public archive.

I don't know what the "confusion" is, but there is one problem.
database/ needs to be group writable. Also all the database/* files
need to be group mailman and group writable.

As I said before, if you look in Mailman's 'error' log you'll probably
see errors related to this.
