### Sympa transport

debug_print = "T: sympa_transport for $local_part$local_part_suffix@$domain"
driver = pipe
command = SYMPA_QUEUE $local_part$local_part_suffix@$domain
current_directory = SYMPA_HOME

group = SYMPA_GID
sympaowner_transport:

current_directory = SYMPA_HOME
home_directory = SYMPA_HOME

sympabounce_transport:
driver = pipe
command = SYMPA_BOUNCEQUEUE sympa@$domain
current_directory = SYMPA_HOME

```
Do I need to order it differently?
Thanks,
