first I'm using the F14 pre-compiled packages of both Exim and mailman.
according to what I can find mailman expects its scripts to be executed
by the group "mailman" with the GID of 41. I have set the following in
Exim which I thought would cover this requirement. /etc/group shows the
GUI of mailman as 41 as so does the /etc/passwd file.
When I send a message to the mailing list I get back the following error -
Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be
executed as one of the following groups:
[mail, postfix, mailman, nobody, daemon],
but the system's mail server executed the mail script as group: "exim".
Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as one of these groups:
[mail, postfix, mailman, nobody, daemon],
or re-run configure providing the command line option:
'--with-mail-gid=exim'.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff
