The import script should not and I repeat 'SHOULD NOT' be run as root. That is a bad thing security wise. The most secure solution as I've mentioned before is to make msg_1 world writable or change it's ownership it such away that the user group that the mailist runs as has write permissions to that file.

As far as running the script itself, it works just fine, and while there are some configuration issues it does work for most people.

permissions on the maillist.php are only executable because we are trying to avoid having to call php manually. If you call PHP manually you can sefely change the permissions of that script to 644 or even 444.
