I now think that my second suggestion of > changing the ports Makefile to set MAIL_GID to mailman instead of nobody > when configuring for postfix is the correct direction to go. cd /usr/ports/mail/mailman MAIL_GID=mailman make install clean works since the commit to mailman's port Makefile in Sep 2006 which turned MAIL_GID to nobody (for use with postfix). The change you suggest has the same effect, so I'd go for it. BTW, does anyone know why MAIL_GID was changed from mailman to nobody? -- bug
