Mark, Thanks for your help. As you suggested, I checked the 'mailman' link in the smrsh file. It was indeed pointing to the wrong location. It appears to have been changed on the same day the mailman login was updated by the system administrator. I have changed the symbolic link and everything seems to be working fine now. Thanks much.

Yes, the strings output looks good. >3 months ago, during installation the configure script was ran with >with-cgi-gid =apache --with-mail-gid = mail. and presumably with prefix=/u001/mailman and maybe other arguments too. So to recap, it seems that running python /u001/mailman/scripts/post mailman </dev/null actually posts a null message to the Mailman list, but that running sudo -u mail /u001/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman </dev/null fails and logs a "Jun 06 14:30:02 2008 post(916): post script, list not found: mailman" error. This is a bit puzzling unless the latter command also issued the "post script, list not found: mailman" error to the terminal. It should have both logged the error and written it to the terminal. So we are left as I see it with two possibilities: 1) There is something wrong with the /u001/mailman/mail/mailman wrapper, or 2) Some other wrapper is actually being invoked. Please refer back to <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2008-June/061950.html> and verify that either sendmail is not using smrsh or if sendmail is using smrsh, that the smrsh file points at the correct wrapper. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
