You have two choices. Postfix runs the pipe as the user:group that owns
the alias file that the pipe came from. You could change the group of
data/aliases* to nobody, but that with cause other problems with
automatic alias generation for Postfix (assuming you have set MTA =
'Postfix')

The better choice is to rerun configure with --with-mail-gid=mailman
and reinstall.
