AS> 1. Can majordomo alphabetize the members on the mailing list?
You should not expect the list to be kept in any order. If necessary,
though, you can sort it externally.
Why is it necessary to keep the list in any order at all? There is a
preferred order (reversed domain), but it is decidedly not alphabetical.
If you just want the output of the who command to be sorted, that is a
simpler matter.
AS> 2. Is there someway to force subscribers to enter their names?
Majordomo works on addresses, not names. The only verification it does is
to make sure that the address is syntactically valid. What's a name,
anyway? It would require human intervention to verify, and you can get
that by making the list closed.

Not unless you want to edit the list directly.

Not without editing the code. There was a patch posted here within the
last several months that lets you turn off the welcome message by setting a
list variable; I'm sure it's in the archives.
