Where do you see that ?

http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/node13.html
...
Run the bin/genaliases script to initialize your aliases file.

         % cd /usr/local/mailman
         % bin/genaliases

Make sure that the owner of the data/aliases and data/aliases.db file is 
mailman and that the group owner for those files is mailman, or whatever 
user and group you used in the configure command:

         % su
         % chown mailman:mailman data/aliases*
...

If Dan is correct could someone update the documentation, then :

         % su
         % chown mailman:mailman data/aliases*
         % chmod g+w data/aliases.db

Thanks
