Not the issue, but this probably shouldn't be other writable.
If this is a RHEL mailman package, please see <https://wiki.list.org/x/12812344>
As far as I know, in the RHEL package, Mailman's aliases are in /etc/mailman/ as you show.
I think the problem may be that the mailman
group does not have write
permission on /etc/mailman/. Permissions should be drwxrwsr-x
and
group mailman.
Try running Mailman's bin/check_perms to check and bin/check_perms -f
as root to fix errors, but don't worry about symlinks.

Hello Mark,
As you mentioned, I was able to delete a mailing list changing the permission of /etc/mailman as follows.
# ls -l /etc/ | grep mailman drwxrwsr-x. 3 root mailman 129 Sep 13 10:39 mailman
Thanks a million!
