More info. I decided to fix my exim configuration to use a special
director just for sympa (the same process should work for listar), so
only sympa's pipes would be run as user sympa.
First, in my exim.conf, i added a new director:
# This director handles sympa mailing list addresses. It works just
# like the system_aliases director above, but looks in
# /etc/sympa/aliases instead of /etc/aliases
sympa_aliases:
driver = aliasfile
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
file = /etc/sympa/aliases
search_type = lsearch
user = sympa
I then copied all the sympa-related aliases to /etc/sympa/aliases, and
deleted them from /etc/aliases. It seems to work, sympa goes through
while any other pipes get the error (or could be configured to use a
different user).
