I'm having a similar, perhaps the same, problem (timing is
everything). Also Digital Unix (aka OSF/1) on an Alpha
AXP. This is my first Majordomo installation and any
insights as well as pointers to information I may have
missed are greatly apreciated.
Answers to some of your questions for my system:
Yes, we use sendmail. Version 5.65v3.2 according to
sendmail -d.
_/var/adm/sendmail/aliases (without the comments on the top)__
# Alias for mailer daemon
MAILER-DAEMON:root
# Following alias is required by the new mail protocol, RFC 822
postmaster:root
# Aliases to handle mail to msgs and news
nobody: /dev/null
# Majordomo aliases
majordomo: "|/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/wrapper majordomo"
owner-majordomo: jps
majordomo-owner: jps
I used jps (my user ID) and jgs for testing. jgs gets no
response and jps gets returned.

---------------- Config-test for Majordomo ----------------
------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------- Obvious things: ---------------------
------------------ environment variables ------------------
HOME=/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4
LOGNAME=jgs
MAJORDOMO_CF=/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/majordomo.cf
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb
SHELL=/bin/sh
USER=jgs
--------------------- euid/egid checks ---------------------
effective user = majordom (uid 16)
effective group = daemon www mem system users (gid 1 24 3 0 15 )
---------------------- uid/gid checks ----------------------
real user = majordom (uid 16)
real group = daemon www mem system users (gid 1 24 3 0 15 )
------------------------------------------------------------
Non obvious things that cause headaches:
------------------------------------------------------------
Good: 'require'd /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/majordomo.cf okay.
Good: found ctime.pl okay.
Good: found majordomo_version.pl okay.
Good: found majordomo.pl okay.
Good: found shlock.pl okay.
Good: found config_parse.pl okay.
You're running Majordomo Version 1.94.4.
--==> Majordomo home directory is /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4.
------------------- Include directories -------------------
/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4
/usr/local/lib/perl5/alpha-dec_osf/5.003
/usr/local/lib/perl5
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/alpha-dec_osf
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
.
--------------------------- Home ---------------------------
Good: changedir to /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4 succeeded.
Good: Created a mock lock file.
---------------------- temp directory ----------------------
Good: Created a temp file in $TMPDIR (/usr/tmp).
---------------------- list directory ----------------------
Good: list directory /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/lists has good permissions.
--------------------------- log ---------------------------
Good: logfile /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/Log exists and is writeable.
------------------------- Mailers -------------------------
You have defined a mailer for delivery.
Attempting to verify that this is a valid mailer...looks okay.
You have defined a mailer for delivering administrative messages.
Attempting to verify that this is a valid mailer...looks okay.
------------------ Checking majordomo.cf ------------------
Checking to see if there are new variables that should be in
your majordomo.cf file...Nope, none that I see.
Have you configured where Majordomo is?
$whereami is co.clark.nv.us
Good: yup!
----------------------- end of tests -----------------------
Nothing bad found! Majordomo _should_ work correctly.
If it doesn't, check your configuration file
(/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/majordomo.cf)
closely, and if it still looks okay, consider asking the majordomo-users
mailing list at "majordomo-users@greatcircle.com" for assistance. Be sure
and fully specify what your problems are, and what type of machine (and
operating system) you are using.
Enjoy!
