I do have the same problem.

And I have in /etc/sympa/sympa.conf:
pidfile         /var/spool/sympa/sympa.pid

Since this is a previous historical value of the parameter, it might be
nice to warn the user of this error... it's quite annoying because you get
a daily mail about the inability to restart Sympa (due to logrotate).

Even better would be for the init script to use the parameter specified
in the sympa.conf file. I don't see a good reason to have to indicate it
two different places. This only lead to such stupid errors.

(I can confirm that replacing /var/spool/sympa/sympa.pid by
/var/run/sympa/sympa.pid fixes this problem)
