I think you should try tweaking the mail server to run the script as 
group "daemon".

Or re-run configure,  providing the command line option

      `--with-mail-gid=users'.

But that's just a guess.

(Well, not really a guess.)

You could also go to the mailman FAQ (following the link in the footer 
of every email you receive from this list) and search on:

	group mismatch

Which finds 2 FAQ entries that explain this issue in greater detail.

Use the FAQ, Antoine.  :-)
