[Mailman-Users] unknown mailer error 2 - Failed to exec script

[Albert E. Whale]

Thanks Greg,

I do appreciate the reply.  Based on your information, it would be my 'guess'
that I need to use the --with-mail-gid=12.  But this hasn't had an effect.
Any other suggestions?  I already have MajorDomo running on Sendmail 8.12.1,
and really didn't think this was rocket science for sendmail.  Is 8.12.1 that
much different from the other versions?

Can someone tell me what I've done wrong??
