	Well, Majordomo has a nasty little bug in it.  When sending out a post,
it starts at the top of the subscriber list, and if it hits a bad address
halfway down the list, it aborts, then starts over.  On a large list, this
can mean that half a dozen bad addresses out of 500 subscribers can cut off
400 of them.

	Listproc is an ok piece of code, but it has drawbacks too, mainly in
the fact that it (at least for me) caused a lot more system load than it
should.
