I'm having the devil of a time getting mailman to work with sendmail. It
compiles and installs ok but contstantly bickers about
Mailman expected the mail
wrapper script to be executed as group "other", but
the system's mail server executed the mail script as
group "mailman". Try tweaking the mail server to run the
script as group "other", or re-run configure,
providing the command line option `--with-mail-gid=mailman'.
Details; have mailman account,group, homedir sgid,
./configure --prefix=/etc/mailman --with-mail-gid=mailman --with-cgi-gid=mailman
make
make install
cd $PREFIX/bin
./check_perms -f
./check_perms -f
first time finds and corrects all the template errors, second runs clean
web page is accessible, can create list eg listname mailman
but no notification is sent to the list owner
ln -s /etc/mailman/mail/mailman /var/adm/sm.bin

Even tried modifying sendmail.cf to use
O DefaultUser=mailman but I REALLY don't wanna do that.
Tried rebuilding with --with-mail-gid=other. Anyone else come across this?
