It is due to redirection losing POST data, but the culprit is not
ScriptAlias. It is whatever you have in your Apache config that
redirects http to https.

I don't know why you couldn't find the answer in the archives. I'm suere
it's there many times. The solution is in Mailman. You need to arange
for form action URLs to be https, not http.

See the FAQ article at <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030602> for links to
more info. In particular, see steps 2. and 3. at
<https://wiki.list.org/x/17892007>.
