Well, they are config files, because it's valid use-case to change them to customize Mailman web interface. If you change the template, you don't want yum to overwrite it after update.

The way to go is probably to move whole directory to /etc/mailman/templates and create link to it in /usr/lib/mailman. They will still remain config files though.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.
