dear sir.

I tried with :

./configure --with-mail-gid=mail  --with-cig-gid=nobody
./configure --with-mail-gid=32010  --with-cig-gid=mailman
./configure --with-mail-gid=514  --with-cig-gid=mailman

and still doesnt work.


What should i give?Maybe i have to go to a file to change by hand the GID???

Sincerely
