[Mailman-Users] Slight misconfiguration

[Conrad Winchester]

After nearly giving up on setting up Mailman last night (attaching it to my
already working Qmail install) I did the right thing this morning and read
the documentation that came with it. (Dave Sill is normally very good, but
his install instructions in the qmail handbook are very lacking :-().

 

Anyway after setting everything up as per the documentation it seems to
actually work (even with qmail-to-mailman which is soooo convenient),
HOWEVER qmail is complaining about one thing in its send logs

 

deferral:
Group_mismatch_error.__Mailman_expected_the_mail/wrapper_script_to_be_execut
ed_as_group_"nofiles",_but/the_system's_mail_server_executed_the_mail_script
_as/group_"mailman".__Try_tweaking_the_mail_server_to_run_the/script_as_grou
p_"nofiles",_or_re-run_configure,_/providing_the_command_line_option_`--with
-mail-gid=mailman'./

 

Now I don't want to reconfigure with gid=mailman because that's wrong. So
how do "Try_tweaking_the_mail_server_to_run_the/script_as_group_"nofiles"".

 

FYI if an email does not get deffered it seems to be sent properly, it is
only the emails that get deffered.

 

Thanks for any help
