Hallo eveybody,

I have some doubts with the installation and the creation of lists.
I have majordomo1.94.4 ad slackware.I need to work with  majordomo but just
in my machine at home not to the public(it's a studies project).

1)
I made the installation as explained in INSTALL (creating a majordomo group
and an user)
In the majordomo.cf :
I dont know what to put in 
$whereami, the name of my machine is MiPC(and in the hostname file says:
MiPC.tristar.com).I tried with MiPC  but i am not sure.

$whoami="majordom\$wherami";
$homedir="/majorinst";(the directory where i installed it)

2)
I have tried to create lists( as NEWLIST file) but 
i dont know haow to do the step7: config <listname> <listname>.admin  comand
to majordomo.

I also donīt know how to test a list
Thos is the way i tried :
from an user called juan i made mailto: to:majordom@localhost
                                                subscribe cine

then majordomo receives the message but there is no response to juan@localhost.
I suppose this is not the right way.
I know majordomo takes a message from an address and it process
it(subscribe,etc..)
but where is specified that address.

I trie  to execute majordomo and it says:
/etc/majordomo.cf not readcle ;stopped at /majordomo line 44.
I suppose that this is because I dont have to execute it must be other
program that call it and give it some arguments.  IS that right?

Thank you in advance.
And sorry for my ignorance.


                                        Rafa.
