I installed majordomo-1.94.1 and fixed the sendmail.cf file and all is
working now!!  Thanks!!

However, when I installed majordomo-1.94.1 *before* the sendmail fix,
it didn't work, but I didn't get any error messages...nothing...zip..
zilch...nada...  With 1.94, I was getting the "mailer error" in the
mail log and as list owner, I was getting the above mail with the error
in it.  With 1.94.1, the mail log said 'stat=Sent', but it didn't create
a digest and there was no error message what-so-ever...  Anyone know what
happened to the errors??

Thanks!
