The problem is that exim is not changing to the correct UID and GID
before handing off the mail to the mailman wrapper. This is well
documented in the mailman list archives. To have this happen
correctly add the following stanza to your transports:

  mailman_list_pipe:
    driver = pipe
    allow_commands = /home/mailman/mail/wrapper
    user = mailman
    group = mail
    return_fail_output


Then you can add the following to your directors:

  mailman_lists:
    driver = aliasfile
    search_type = lsearch
    file = /home/mailman/data/aliases
    pipe_transport = mailman_list_pipe


which allows you to add all your list aliases to
/home/mailman/data/aliases rahter than /etc/aliases.
