Yes, enough for now (>70MB, it's text only msgs).

Hmmm... mailman is setgid mailman (perms/ownership 8 -rwxr-sr-x 1
mailman mailman) - the perms of
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/waf-ac-core (one of the mailing
lists in question) are drwxrwsr-x  2 mailman mailman - that should be
ok, right?
The funny thing is, that for one month it worked, but the problem
seemed to be the creation of a new subdirectory. 
The file system is mounted with "noatime" option - might that be a
problem?
Delivery of the messages works - its only the archiving which don't
(w/o visible error msgs). Neither the HTML archives nor the mbox
archives are written. Strange...
