-rw------- 1 mailman crontab  /var/spool/cron/crontabs/mailman
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root /etc/cron.d/maiman

Those are the two places you mentioned.

Thanks,

Mailman's crontab should be installed so it either belongs to the
mailman user (which I think is 'list' in your case) or runs as the
mailman user. I.e. it should be in /var/spool/cron/list or if it is in
/etc/cron.d/ (e.g. /etc/cron.d/mailman), it should have a field in
between the 5 date/time fields and the command containing 'list'.

So where is Mailman's crontab?
