On a hunch, I checked something. My webserver runs as www:www. I also us 
SuExec. All my virtual hosts, except for the Mailman list sites, had 
SuExec lines appropriate for the user and group they whould run as. 
Somewhere along the line, I added an SuExec line to the Mailman sites, 
saying to run as www:www, so that it would be explicitly stated. That 
was fine, except that the server could no longer access the mailman 
software, located outside the trused SuExec path. I took out the lines, 
restarted the server, and all is well. :)
