I did a clean install of mailman-2.1a4 and the web interface is working fine, but I'm having problems with sending messages. I'm running Red Hat 7.2 with Python 2.2 and sendmail 8.11. My aliases for the list I created are correct. I changed the symbolic link in /etc/smrsh to point to mailman rather than wrapper.

Here is the following error, I hope I can get some feedback on the solution to the problem.
