I think you understand what the error is telling you. You have to either make sendmail run the pipe as group mailman or you have to make the wrapper expect to be run as group mailnull. >>From post-installation instructions we can see: >"you have to choose SENDMAIL option on config build and port will set >MAIL_GID=mailnull to you", >but makefile in port containes :".if defined(WITH_SENDMAIL)... >MAIL_GID? mailnull >.endif" >May be it's not enough I have no idea how the FreeBSD port sets the expected group for the wrapper. This is a FreeBSD Mailman question. In our Mailman distribution, the expected group is compiled into the wrapper from the --with-mail-gid option to configure. The things you quote above seem to say it should be doing the right thing, but I have no way to know. What does the rest of the makefile do with MAIL_GID? Can you determine if it is put in a file somewhere and what that file actually contains? Perhaps you can fix it by changing that file if that's what it does. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
