Gating from news to mail happens by cron/gate_news. Gating from mail
to news happens by the ToUsenet.py handler run by the qrunner.
Neither should be able to create root owned files (if they were owned
by user or group `mailman', then I'd be more suspecting of a Mailman
problem).
Yes, I tend to agree. No it's configured and set up properly, all the ownerships are by mailman/mailman. I hadn't thought about the fact that root owned those files, so I'll do a little more digging when I figure out what's been happening and post back with more details if I can't.
Thanks for your help and prompt replies!
