hello, i realized some strange behavior of mailman with the EXTERNAL_PUBLIC_ARCHIVER option. simply setting it to '/usr/bin/id > /tmp/log 2>&1' gives in /tmp/log: uid=38(list) gid=38(list) groups=0(root),102(lpadmin),109(shutdown)

mh, the problem is at the debian package: mailmanctl start is run as root. if i start mailman as list, /tmp/log has the output i expected: uid=38(list) gid=38(list) groups=38(list),106(lurker)
