This list of four groups is the default list used by configure if no --with-mail-gid= is specified to configure. What is supposed to happen is the first one of these group names that is actually found as a registered group on the machine is the one that is used. If however, the --without-permcheck option is given to configure and none of the four groups exists at configure time, the whole list is passed to the wrapper at compile time instead of a single group and this results in the above error. >Problem solved after recompiling with --with-mail-gid=mail, fixing links.
