[Mailman-Users] Postfix as MTA in 2.1b3

[Greg Westin]

My problems have been solved (at least this one... I hope I didn't mess
anything else up) by doing the following:

1.  Changing to the permissions Victoriano shows below.  I hope those are OK?

2.  Chmod'ing the private archives folder to allow group write access.
(g+w)  I hope this is OK?

I think everything's in order now!  I wonder why check_perms doesn't check
for this sort of thing, though...

Thanks for your help,

Greg
