st: sgmediation and panel data

Dear colleagues,
I am trying to run a Sobel test for mediation on a panel database (15 years)
using the ?sgmediation? command created by Phil Ender.
According to a previous statalist thread, this test should NOT work with
panel data:
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2009-03/msg01155.html
However, I don?t understand what this means: I declared my database to be
panel with xtset and then run the Sobel test without any problems?
Are the results I get useless/wrong and why?
Also, is there any alternative to the Sobel test for mediation (that
measures the exact strength and significance of the mediation)?
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards,
Dr Konstantinos Pitsakis
