Hi,

        I'm using fcron to schedule the mailman jobs. I configured fcron to run 
the mailman jobs as the mailman user (fcrontab -u mailman...). I also created 
the mailman user with no login shell (/bin/false), similar to what is suggested 
in the mailman installation manual.

        When the mailman jobs are run by fcron, an exit status of 1 is 
returned. I have found that if I replace the "/bin/false" shell entry with 
"/bin/sh" for the mailman user in the /etc/passwd file, fcron correctly runs 
the mailman jobs.

        What can be wrong with my setup?

        Hugo V.
