Hi Malcolm:
Your cPanel provider should run the following commands on the server:
/scripts/fixmailinglistperms /scripts/fixmailman
That will typically fix most list permissions. For some reasons, files within the 'listname'/en directory gets their permissions screwed up. I ran into this several times after migrating our own mailman hosting clients to new mailman servers.

ideas that will be useful when I finally resort to sending in a support

that I have a problem ... I had changed the list-info and user-options pages and now, not only do
those pages result in 'Bug in Mailman version 2.1.15' displays, so do my
attempts to edit them through the admin interface. I have noticed that a cPanel backup logs 4 sets (I have 4 lists) of
permission failures for my lists suggesting that the pages I have changed
no longer have the right permissions. I seem not to have file level access to the mailman hierarchy, so I guess
I need advice as to what permissions I need to ask them to manually set on
which files or folders. I'd like to make my request specific enough to
avoid having the lists reset and the archives and/or membership lists
discarded. Thanks for any advice, Malcolm. --
