hi list, after hours of searching on the net (finding that the problem is not unknown, but not yielding a solution for me) and several rebuilds of mailman (mailman-2.1.8rc1, from NetBSD pkgsrc) i'm stuck.
as advised, i built mailman with --with-mail-gid=nobody (for postfix), but this leads me to following problem when trying to post to a newly created (the first, one and only on the machine) list: Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as group "nobody", but the system's mail server executed the mail script as group "mailman". Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group "nobody", or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-mail-gid=mailman'. i figure that i need to tell postfix to run /usr/pkg/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request [EMAIL PROTECTED] as nobody. can i force postfix to do this? any hints greatly appreciated - thanks in advance, -- Timo Schoeler | http://riscworks.net/~tis | [EMAIL PROTECTED] RISCworks -- Perfection is a powerful message ISP | POWER & PowerPC afficinados | Networking, Security, BSD services GPG Key fingerprint = C9CA 7A13 4250 44EF CC58 938F AE29 5465 6E09 3093 There are 10 types of people in the world.
