Good questions.  I have sent the list commands to majordomo and only the 
names of the lists show up.  I have other files in there such as 
listname.auto, listname.passwd etc and these are not supplied in the 
list.  If someone tries to send a message to the list and they are not in 
the listname.post file, it bounces the message to me.  

It seems to work so far, but I am out there testing the water like most 
others!
