OK.. this is weird - the alias in httpd.conf points to /public/ and the archives are being re-directed to /private/ ???!!??? here is the alias: Alias /pipermail/ "/var/www/mailman/archives/public/" (like the docs say...) but it's going to /var/www/mailman/archives/private/ and I can look at them (as the SU) using an internal browser..

That's the way it works, yes.  *You* have the ability to 'su' to the mailman

user and view anything you please, however anyone coming out from the internet with a browser can not.
