What I didn't find was anything about listname.new and L.listname,
the two files causing my irritations now.
I checked the mode (it allready was 664 for listname.new)
What I tried last was:
Deleting those files (which were owned by mail mail) and creating
them new, owned by majordomo and mode 666. It worked once, my next
try to subscribe ended with
MAJORDOMO ABORT (mj_majordomo)!!
chmod(33206, "/var/lib/majordomo/lists/folkmail.new"): Operation
not permitted
Permissions for listname.new were unchanged, L.listname was created
new and again only owned by mail.
My suggestion: has Majordomo to be in the mail group too?
I can't try out for myself, I have to wait for the systems
administrator and I don't want to bomb him with new
pointless sugestions what to do for me again...
Greetings
Dennis
