I don't think so. Everything's pretty much accessible to mailman group
and user.

I've been updating the aliases manually - the errors come when I try to
send mail. As far as I can tell, there's only one setup that works:
- a complete copy of the /etc/postfix/aliases file in /home/mailman
- every time I update the site aliases, I have the update the
/home/mailman/aliases file and run postalias on it.
- the following in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/home/mailman/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
If I use the convention:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, hash:/home/mailman/aliases
I get a postfix error.
If I try to just keep mailman aliases in the /home/mailman/aliases file, I
get the error.
If I chgrp mailman /etc/postfix/aliases and open up the w perms in order
to try to centralize things, I get the error.
The error is:
The Postfix program
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Command died with status 2:
"/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post list.foo". Command output:
Failure to
exec script. WANTED gid 41, GOT gid 99. (Reconfigure to take 99?)
(41 = mailman)
