Actually, create is a CGI so you can use a slash, but that isn't the
issue here.

Let's try to debug one issue at a time, but what's in error_log for the
403?

It was part of it. Apache is now looking for
'/usr/local/mailman/create' instead of 'usr/local/mailman/create'.
That's progress.

So now it looks like a permissions issue. What are the permissions on
/usr/local/mailman (the contents looked OK in a prior post).

Have you tried running bin/check_perms?
