error origin
--------------------------------------------------------
unsafe permission of files or directories
loop /etc/aliases miss-configuration
did not newaliases
user unknown no such user
/etc/aliases miss-configuration
did not newaliases
sh: fml.pl not available
you use smrsh? properly configured?
* You fails to use :include: form in /etc/aliases
The following reasons are possible:
* "include" file exists in an insecure directory.
Please check the whole hierarchy permission from / to the "include".
check /usr, /usr/local, /usr/local/fml, ... and chmod 755 them!
* your mail system do not support include form.
You may require C-Wrapper (see below).
If you fails to use :include: in /etc/aliases, please use the
C-wrapper program which may be required to be root-setuid.
The example of the C-wrapper is
/var/spool/ml/listname/fmlwrapper.c
Please compile and set it properly. I recommend you council the
setting of the C-wrapper with the administrator of the
machine since it requires a lot of attention.
FYI: Some OS's provides a memo on installation. Please check your OS.
e.g. Debian Linux /usr/doc/fml/
