Mailman works fine when qmail-scanner is deactivated and it's presently
working fine with "-with-mail-gid='mailman'".  
 
However when qmail-scanner is activated the qmail error logs give

Now, I've tried compiling mailman with different "-with-mail-gid" values
including nofiles, qmail and mailman.  Regardless of the compilation 
values, however, the above error occurs when qmail-scanner is active. 
 
 Qmail-scanner seems to be executing the mailman wrapper as a different
user than the wrapper is executed without qmail-scanner running?
 
Does anyone have any suggestions for getting mailman to work under
qmail-scanner? 
 
Thanks.
