The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Olivier Salaun - CRU <address@concealed>]

Hi Hanke,

There seem to be 2 problems, one of which I can fix for you.

1. Bounced.pl should not process BAD-xx files. Here is a fix for this problem : http://listes.cru.fr/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/sympa/wwsympa/bounced.pl.diff?r2=1.41&r1=1.40&f=u
2. The bouncequeue program b=oviously does not run as 'sympa' user, maybe it has lost its setuid bit or sendmail/smrsh is badly configured.
