I left out some stuff I should have included in my last post so here it is.
Also to clarify, this is not a problem with files in the listname.archive
directory that I can access with a "get" command,  this problem concerns
writing copies of all e-mails submitted to the list to the
/usr/majordomo/archive directory.

Here are the rights on the directory structure

drwx-r-xr-x    majordom.daemon      /usr/majordomo
-rwSr-xr-x      root.mail                    /usr/majordomo/wrapper
drwx-r-xr-x    majordom.daemon      /usr/majordomo/archive
drwx-r-xr-x    mail.mail                    /usr/majordomo/archive/listname
 rw------        mail.mail
/usr/majordomo/archive/listname/listname
