[Mailman-Users] mailman install

[Dave Stern - Former Rocket Scientist]

I'm re-installing mailman on an automounted partition and am having some
problems. The install goes as planned and I can even make lists and people
receive welcome messages but I can't send to the list and can't reach 
the webpage. 

Log for the webpage:

When I send to the list, I'm also seeing:

We have a later version of sendmail with smrsh and links in /var/adm/sm.bin
to the wrapper.

So does mailman not allow automounts? what about suid?

Also, I thought that this (2.0.11) is the latest non-beta version of mailman.
Is that true?
