It turns out the problem was simple and so was the solution. When importing my existing list data and archives from another machine, I did not know to update the selinux context labels appropriately. Thus, the kernel was unable to determine if the apache user was allowed to access the files. Normally it should be, but without the labels it wouldn't succeed. To correct the labels, I ran both of these commands as root: # fixfiles relabel # restorecon -Rv /var/lib/mailman Their descriptions sound very similiar so I probably only needed one of them.
