Someone sent this against the MLMMJ package in Debian. I found it a very
valid request. I think either mlmmj-make-ml should set the umask
explicitly, or even better, perform some chmods.

Package: mlmmj
Version: 1.2.17-1
Severity: minor


I have my umask set to 0027. If I run mlmmj-make-ml with sudo, then
this umask is inherited, and used to create all the files and
directories for a new mailing list, which is wrong. The files and
directories should be explicitly chmodded to the correct permissions.
