What's in Mailman's error and qrunner logs when the runner dies? >Whether my perms are related to the above problem or not, I apparently do >have some permissions problems as shown by running check_perms.

What are the 17 problem files/directories and what are their ownership and permissions? >I'm not a Linux expert, obvious from the above... Any suggestions?
