[Mailman-Users] Setup problem with Mailman

Correction:

The problem below occurred because Mailman had run into an error and 
hadn't installed that directory.  I figured that one out and it's 
installing again.

Now I'm back to a Group Mismatch error once again, and adding the 
configure line

     --with-mail-gid=staff

(and removing the line --with-mail-gid=${mmgroup} ) as suggested doesn't 
fix it.

Next step?  It seems I go through this every time I do an install of 
Mailman...
