What is the error exactly? You never really said.

They aren't static web pages, they are CGI scripts. And they should be
working fine -- you did the correct steps. Although I think the
following should work better:
ScriptAlias /mailman /home/mailman/cgi-bin/
Alias /pipermail /home/mailman/archives/public/
Note that there are no trailing slashes after the alias names. And you
don't the need the <Directory> section; the ScriptAlias token eliminate
the need for the ExecCGI option (it's automatically a CGI directory).
Again, what is the exact error message you're receiving?
