You write:

I'm not sure what kind of charm this is, but as I posted before, when I
try to create a digest in this way I get back the message:

>>>> mkdigest <digest list name> <digest list passwd>
*** digest: failed errors follow
No messages.
Stopped 
ABORT No messages.
Stopped  at majordomo.pl line 209, <_GEN_0> line 1.

and I don't know enough perl to debug this.  If anyone has any ideas
what is happening I would appreciate advice.

And yes, the command was indeed 'mkdigest list password', I'm not that
literal!  Just didn't want to publish that info.
