I'd say you did mess up:
Shoulda been ./configure --with-mail-gid=mail
Mailman is not it's own MTA, and relies on Sendmail or POSTFIX or whatever
MTA you have loaded on your server. That's what the mail-gid should have
been set to..

Subject: [Mailman-Users] More permission problems
I configured Mailman like this:
./configure --with-mail-gid=mailman
--with-cgi-gid=apache --with-python=/usr/bin/python2
(Our web server runs as "apache", not "nobody".)
I recently found out that help requests sent to <list>-request at server don't
get any reply. And my error logs contain a lot of entries like this:
Apr 09 06:50:14 2003 (24350) Uncaught runner exception: [Errno 13]

fp = open(filename)
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:

I ran check_perms -f and this fixed the problem. But did I make a mistake
during the installation?
