new-list produces error

[Roman Huber <huber @ automatix . wop . iao . fhg . de>]

Dear Masters of MD,

I have MD 1.93 up and running with Perl 5.001m on SunOS 4.1.2 
BUT cannot get "new-list" to operate properly.

Here's the relevant part of my aliases-file:
----------------------- excerpt of aliases ---------------------
# test - Test list for majordomo work
test-request:"|/users/majordom/sbin/wrapper request-answer test"

#test:"|/users/majordom/sbin/wrapper resend -l test 
#             -h xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -s -R test-outgoing"

test:"|/users/majordom/sbin/wrapper new-list test"

test-outgoing::include:/users/majordom/lists/test, 
              "|/users/majordom/sbin/wrapper archive2.pl -a -m 
              -f /users/majordom/lists/test.archive/test"

owner-test:          huber
owner-test-outgoing: owner-test
test-approval:       huber
----------------------- excerpt of aliases ---------------------

This is what I get if an email hits the "test"-alias containing
"new-list":

Subject: Returned mail: unknown mailer error 255
To: Postmaster
Status: RO
X-Status: 

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----

Did I goof or is it patch-time ?

TIA,
    Roman
