Subject: Mailer problems with approve requests

 I am using majordomo-1.93 for a moderated list. I am moving the list to a
solaris2.5 machine running sendmail8.6. The previous installation was on a
SunOS4.1.3 machine running smail3.1.28.
 The compilation went without incident. Yet I am seeing different behavior in
the mail sent to moderator for approval.
 We are using zmail3.2 as the mailtool and have added an "approve" widget. In
the past (SunOS.4.1.3 smail), the Approve request and the actual mail were
recieved as one piece with the BOUNCE <listname> Approve request as the subject
line. When I recieve the BOUNCE request for Approval, using sendmail as the
mailer, it comes in two pieces. One is the BOUNCE (subject line)and the other
is the actual piece (with the actual subject line: in the test case below
"postmaster test"). If I approve the bounce, I send a blank piece of mail to
the list. If I approve the actual piece, I recieve an error window with the
following message:
Command exited with status 512.

unknown request type 'postmaster' in file ''; skipping at
/home/majordomo/bin/approve line 127, <STDIN> chunk 11.
Can't "next" outside a block at /home/majordomo/bin/approve line 128, <STDIN>
chunk 11.
 I can't seem to find the source of this new behavior. Can anyone help me as to
how I might join the mail as before?
