Any pointers please? As I said before, I don't have root access.
That's a file permissions problem. You need to talk to your CPanel hosting provider.
To elaborate, the user under which the cron is running does not have permission to create/write the lock file to lock the list. The cron probably needs to run as root or as a user in the 'mailman' group (usually 'mailman').
