I'm not sure exactly what's happening, but "Failed to exec mailman wrapper: unable to determine caller's group name" seems to be an issue with the group that Qmail is using to invoke the mail wrapper. The wrapper doesn't issue that exact message (at least not in the source distribution), but it can issue a message like Failure to find group name <group>. Try adding this group to your system, or re-run configure, providing an existing group name with the command line option --with-mail-gid. or Failure to find group name for GID <gid1>. Mailman expected the mail wrapper to be executed as group "<group>", but the system's mail server executed the wrapper as GID <gid2> for which the name could not be found. Try adding GID <gid2> to your system as "<group>", or tweak your mail server to run the wrapper as group "<group>. If this is the issue, the most likely cause is Qmail is invoking the wrapper with a group ID that isn't registered on your system. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
