I did modify those options.  sendmail deamon is running as root and
apache is running as nobody.

so 

$>./configure --with-mail-gid=root --with-cgi-gid=nobody

The error is complaining that it wanted gid 0 (root) but got gid 12
(mail)

so I recompiled from scratch w/ --with-mail-gid=mail

Then test it.

I get a subscription email, i reply, but don't get a confirmation reply.
I have that option set for this list as well.

Am i misinterpreting what it means by --with-mail/cgi-gid????

thanx,
