Public bug reported:

I am running mailman as www-data:list rather than as list:list. After a
reboot something keeps resetting the ownership /var/run/mailman from
www-data:list to list:list. After each reboot I have to reset/restart
manually. All  other directories & files are fine.

I have hunted all over but I cannot find where this is happening.
This is the tail of /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py:

#-------------------------------------------------------------
# Uncomment if you want to filter mail with SpamAssassin. For
# more information please visit this website:
# http://www.jamesh.id.au/articles/mailman-spamassassin/
# GLOBAL_PIPELINE.insert(1, 'SpamAssassin')

# Note - if you're looking for something that is imported from mm_cfg, but you
# didn't find it above, it's probably in /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py.
MAILMAN_USER = 'www-data'
