Hi!
Hope you can help me.  I'm trying to install Majordomo on a Sun
Sparcstation 4 running Solris.  The mail server is Netscape Mail
Server.  I had no problem installing Majordomo, but when it comes to
define aliases for sendmail, I got a message saying something like I
can't use sendmail with Majordomo because Netscape Mail is the boss
now.  So it doesn't matter if I define the aliases in /etc/aliases,
because Netscape Mail (NSM)define its own aliases. I tried the following
	Create a new account in NSM named majordomo
	I set the path to wrapper so it is executed whenever a mail to
majordomo arrives (defined the alias for majordomo).
	Defined the SMTP channel aliases for majordomo-owner and
owner-majordomo.
	Created a test list.
	Created an account for test with it's alias (to invoke wrapper).
	Defined the SMTP channel aliases for test-owner and owner-test
	The problem is I can't create the aliases:
	     test-list:  :include:/usr/test/majordomo-1.94.3/lists/test
	     test-request: "|/usr/test/majordomo-1.94.3/wrapper majordomo -l
test"
	I just don't know where to define this aliases, an option would be to
create a new account for test-request to define
	 test-request: "|/usr/test/majordomo-1.94.3/wrapper majordomo -l test"
	but that means creating lots of accounts, but ok, now the problem is
how to define the :include:... alias???
is it that majordomo and netscape mail server just hate each other or am
I kind of an idiot?
Hope you can help me
Thanks a lot
