Hello,
I am installing majordomo 1.92 and decided to use both upper
and lower-case letter for the lists filenames.
During tests I found out that the lists where recognized by
majordomo "lists" and "which" commands but that "subscribe"
"who", etc. produced the message "no such list".
After a couple of hours of working with the perl debugger, I
found the line "$clean_list =~ tr/A-Z/a-z/;" in majordomo.pl
which converts the listname to lower-case before looking for
its file, and therefore not finding any mixed-case listnames.
While this helps reduce users errors and works smootly in the
long run, it is not enfatized in the documentation, particularly,
it is not mentioned in the transcription of the chapter on
majordomo of the book by Jerry Peek which comes with the
distribution.
I hope this comments help other users struggling to install
Majordomo
