What was in your web server error log when you were getting the 403's?

check_perms wouldn't have done anything in public_html because it
doesn't know about it, and anyway, the permissions on a symlink itself
should be irrelevant. Assuming you have sufficient access to read the
symlink, it's the targets permissions that count.

Unless there's something wrong with MAILMAN_USER and/or MAILMAN_GROUP
in Defaults.py/mm_cfg.py (or MAILMAN_UID and/or MAILMAN_GID in
mm_cfg.py if this is a RedHat rpm) I don't know how check_perms -f
would break anything.
