Okay thank you for sharing your permissions.  I figured out that my
permissions for /usr/local/mailman/archives/private directory was different
from yours.

after a 'chmod o+x private/' the public and private mailman archives are visible. 

but now when I run the bin/check_perms -f I see the following warning:

--- snip ---

# ./check_perms -f
Warning: Private archive directory is other-executable (o+x).
         This could allow other users on your system to read private archives.
         If you're on a shared multiuser system, you should consult the
         installation manual on how to fix this.
No problems found

--- snip ----

here are the permissions:

--- snip ----

# pwd
/usr/local/mailman/archives
# ls -l
total 6
drwxrws--x  103 mailman  mailman  2560 Apr 21 21:49 private
drwxrwsr-x    2 mailman  mailman  1536 Apr 21 21:49 public

---s nip ---

cheers,

Noah
