I have installed smartlist and procmail under Debian (Hamm).  I seem to have
made the necessary changes in sendmail.rc and sendmail.cf (I think).  

I can use createlist successfully and have put the aliases in /etc/aliases
and run newaliases which counts them in.  Trouble is that if I email the new
list request ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) I get nothing back.  Copying
to other accounts on the same machine and elsewhere shows general delivery 
going O.K.

After the line showing that the message was passed to
    "|/var/list/.bin/flist test"  /var/log/mail.log shows a complaint:
Sep 28 13:02:10 psyctc1 procmail[9053]: Error while writing to "log"

I assume that I've managed to get a permission wrong on a log file that
procmail wants to log its actions to or that I've failed to create
the file.  Trouble is that I can't find any documentation mentioning
logging when procmail is being invoked directly by sendmail.

Can someone help me?  I'm no unix wizard or programmer but I have a
lot of experience of running lists on mailbase and NTmail and I'd like
to transfer to smartlist and Debian but I'm stuck now.  Advice 
gratefully received.

Chris
