Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as one of the following groups: [mail, postfix, mailman, nobody, daemon], but the system's mail server executed the mail script as group: "users". Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as one of these groups: [mail, postfix, mailman, nobody, daemon], or re-run configure providing the command line option: '--with-mail-gid=users'.>

With Postfix, assuming you are using aliases, Postfix invokes the
delivery pipe as the user (and that user's primary group) who owns the
aliases.db file in which the alias was found.

If you have the recommended Postfix-Mailman integration, and RHEL file
locations, this means /etc/mailman/aliases.db should be owned by
'mailman'
