What are the current rights on /var/lib/majordomo/lists/newlist?  The error is telling you that the file is group writable and IIRC, for security pruposes, should only be writable by owner and readable only by group and other.  For example:

$ ls -al /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test
-rw-r--r-- 1 majordom mail 13 Oct  1  2007 /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test

Coming down the stretch with getting the tool working end-to-end.. Just stuck on why I continue to see this error when I test a new list. 
 
I've checked everything under the sun...
 
Any thoughts or ideas why I'm seeing this:
