What version of exim and Mailman, on what OS platform?
I'd rather suspect that your exim binary is not running setuid, which
will stop a great many things working.
Permissions should look much like this:-
2> ls -l /usr/sbin/exim
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 1993331 Oct 7 10:57 /usr/sbin/exim
If you are using Mandrake there is some magic process that wanders
around breaking permissions on files - theres some info in the archives
about this.
