Yeah, I do.  I did a search but unfortunately (or fortunately) a lot of
people use mailman mailing lists, and a lot use the exim mail server.
coincidentally, many use both, so narrowing search results was
difficult.

I did ./configure --with-mail-gid=mailman (1001) --with-cgi-gid=65534
(nobody)
make install

One thing that mailman does do, is it sent out the email to the list

When I registered people as admin, they got the email.  list,
list-request, and list-admin all failed to work.
