a few weeks ago, we had some breakins here, and went through the
laborious process of reinstalling the system (SunOs 4.1.3_U1, i
believe) with full patches, and upgrades to all the vulnerable
utilities. this included sendmail 8.6.9. and ever since that
time, resend has not worked for me. i can't guarantee the problem
was sendmail, since an enormous number of things were changed all
at the same time, and during that time our connections to the
outside world were all disabled anyway. but i seems the most likely
culprit.
i have just upgraded to majordomo release 1.90, which didn't seem
to fix any part of my problem.
anyway, the error message looks like this:

the entry in /etc/aliases looks like:
| psi: "|/applic/ath/majordomo/wrapper resend -p bulk -l psi -h callisto.pas.ro\
| chester.edu -r psi -f psi-owner psi-outgoing"
| psi-outgoing: :include:/applic/ath/majordomo/lists/psi
[there are also some -owner and -request aliases.]
