To continue the story. I tried this, and web access produced the error that Apache is running it from group "Administrators", not "None". So next, I tried: ./configure --with-mail-gid=None --with-cgi-gid=Administrators --with-groupname=None Not much better results. Using "addlist" does seem to succeed. Attempting the web interface now gives the classic: "We're sorry, we hit a bug! [...] the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs." However, this time there is no error log; /usr/local/mailman/logs is empty. I don't know if we've exhausted all possible combinations of mail-gid, cgi-gid, and groupname, but it sure feels elusive. You mentioned that you _have_ seen it work with user 'Mark' and group 'None'. Do you have any record of what you passed to ./configure in this case?
