>Description:
The Makefile of Mailman contains unsuitable definitions of these two variables:
MAILMAN_USER
MAILMAN_GROUP
Which both default do the daemon user/group, although mailman should run under
the 'mailman' group and the 'mailman' user.
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply compile the latest Mailman version from pkgsrc.
>Fix:
Edit /usr/pkgsrc/mail/mailman/Makefile
Changes made:
MAILMAN_USER?= mailman
MAILMAN_GROUP?= mailman
