Howto solve unknown mailer error without recompiling?

Hi, does somebody know how I can do this? The problem is, that I am running Mandrak Linux 8.2 and I installed Mailman from the MDK8.2 CDs but he has this problems... Do I have to reinstall the RPM with setting it to the right GID?
The funny is, that I think that the GID is set right ( 12 - mail ) but it wants to have it set to 99 ( unknown ). What can I do ? By the way, I am using sendmail.
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner kutro" (reason: 2) (expanded from: kutro-admin)
----- Transcript of session follows ----- Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 99, GOT gid 12. (Reconfigure to take 12?) 554 5.3.0 unknown mailer error 2
Thanks for help, David

Last time I talked to the guy doing the Mailman RPM for Mandrake (my
favorite dist), he said that he was setting it up to work with Postfix.
You might want to look around and see if there is a specific MDK-rpm for
sendmail. Or you might want to use Postfix as your MTA.
An other option is to install from source. Installing from source is very trivial: You download the source and extract it (tar -xzf ...), change to the directory formed by untarring it and run "./configure" then "make install"

Thx, I installed it from source now...Wouldn't it be better to make this port setting an option which you can configure via config-file rather than compiling it ?
Thx, David
