[Mailman-Users] SetGID

[Jon Carnes]

You should be able to work around this particular problem by having them
add the apache user (whatever "user" the server runs as) into the
mailman group.  That will allow Apache to run any of the apps and still
have access to all the data.

Good luck - Jon Carnes
