Thanks for the response.  I had one other response that was somewhat rather 
unfriendly.  In fact, my misfortune of trying to install and configure 
majordomo with a beginners' Unix background and the lack of response or help 
from the list has forced me to switch to Listserv Lite Freeware.  So far, it 
seems to be much, much easier to install and set up, although I haven't 
actually installed it yet.  But the thorough documentation seems to be very 
simple and straight forward.  Althought Listserv lacks any add-on graphical 
interfaces, the documentation is thorough and easy to understand, even for a 
Unix novice like me. The features are abundant and the bugs seem to be few, 
so far.  

Of course, I understand the origin of and appreciate the hard work put into 
majordomo by self-sacrificing volunteers, it's just not for me ... yet.
Someday, I'll come to know Unix like I do DOS.  Until then, ...

Thanks again,
ks
