crond is not able to run any of the commands in mailman's crontab. The
fact that you are seeing these log messages every 5 minutes indicates
it is reading your mailman crontab and trying to run gate_news so you
migh be able to make it work by putting

HOME=/path/to/mailman/prefix

in the initial lines of the crontab, but normally, this is set as
mailman's home directory.
