exim and mailman (F14)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



first I'm using the F14 pre-compiled packages of both Exim and mailman.

according to what I can find mailman expects its scripts to be executed 
by the group "mailman" with the GID of 41.  I have set the following in 
Exim which I thought would cover this requirement. /etc/group shows the 
GUI of mailman as 41 as so does the /etc/passwd file.

When I send a message to the mailing list I get back the following error -

Group mismatch error. 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: "exim".
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=exim'.

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff
