Greetings programs! Here's the deal:
I recently upgraded my kernel, from 2.2.15mdk-secure to 2.4.0. On top of that I
compiled and installed a new version of python. from 1.5.2 to 2.0. Everything
was hunky-dory because Mailman still delivered mail just fine. but I ran into a
problem with creating a new list - the passwords never worked for the admins,
so I realized what I'd done and decided to reinstall Mailman. Well, I do
everything according to the directions again, and come up with the following
error in my mail.log file:
Feb 11 05:16:59 unica qmail: 981897419.719923 starting delivery 6520: msg

Now this is very frustrating, since I ran the configure script with a
--with-mail-gid=12 option and it recognized it, as follows. Can anyone help me
UN puzzle this again so that my Mailman installation can both make new lists
AND deliver them? :P This is just too frustrating for me at 5am on a night
before work :]
