[Mailman-Users] group trouble

I have recently installed mailman 2.2.1 on an OpenBSD 3.3 Sparc64 server.
When I send mail to a test list mailman complains that postfix is executing
the mailman script with the wrong group. The message is:
"/usr/local/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces gl4". Command output: Group
mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as
group "nobody", but the system's mail server executed the mail script as
group "mailman". Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group
"nobody", or re-run configure, providing the command line option
`--with-mail-gid=mailman'.
However mailman was installed with ./configure --with-mail-gid=nobody which
is the ports way on openbsd. I tried changing the --with-mail-gid= to use
mailman. This results in mailman complaing that the script was executed with
group nobody but it expected mailmani - the opposite as before.
I have tried changing the group permissions on the alias files to match the
complaint (after reading the archives). This didn't change a bit.
I'm at loss here. Could somebody give me a hint on how to solve this?
