This is from the destination system--someone on your list has problems
in *their* mail system. Not your problem, but if it persists, it'd be polite
to notify postmaster@servtech.com that he has a problem. Be sure to
include a complete bounce for analysis.

This is generated by *your* mail system when the list mail goes out
because 'majordom' on your system isn't trusted by sendmail. See the FAQ
re "trusted users".
