I would wager that Steinmetz tried to follow the FAQ as written but was thrown off by the fact that Debian doesn't use mailman as the owner or group for the mailman files. And if you're not familiar with how postfix works and runs the postalias command as the user/group of the alias file, you might resort to a chmod 0666. - -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xD654075A | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== Wisdom has two parts: (1) having a lot to say and (2) not saying it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: When crypto is outlawed bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl. iG0EARECAC0FAkQm82ImGGh0dHA6Ly93d3cucG9ib3guY29tL350bXovcGdwL3Rt ei5hc2MACgkQuv+09NZUB1qIsgCfein4W3SM9uDKVngs0xC5Pzz/dGMAoOmGszBM BlY9pCHoBqt1IWuvx4E9 =C17b -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
