I means that the pipe exited with a non-zero status, in this case 1.

I suspect that your MTA isn't running the wrapper under the correct
user -- here is my Exim setup, note the "user = mailman" in the
transport:

######################################################################
#                      TRANPORTS CONFIGURATION                       #
######################################################################

mailman_list_pipe:
  driver = pipe
  allow_commands = /local/Mailman/mail/wrapper
  user = mailman
  return_output

######################################################################
#                      DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION                       #
######################################################################

local_lists:
  driver = aliasfile
  search_type = lsearch
  file = /local/Mailman/data/MTA_aliases
  pipe_transport = mailman_list_pipe
