Try reading a list config file ... full of useful stuff ...

        # message_fronter    [string_array] (undef) <resend,digest>
        # Text to be prepended to the beginning of all messages posted to the
        # list. The text is expanded before being used. The following
        # expansion tokens are defined: $LIST - the name of the current list,
        # $SENDER - the sender as taken from the from line, $VERSION, the
        # version of majordomo. If used in a digest, only the expansion token
        # _SUBJECTS_ is available, and it expands to the list of message
        # subjects in the digest
message_fronter   <<  END


... remembering of course ....

#     To embed a blank line in the here document, put a '-' as the first
#       and ONLY character on the line.
#
#     To preserve whitespace at the beginning of a line, put a - on the
#       line before the whitespace to be preserved
#
#     To put a literal '-' at the beginning of a line, double it.
