Hi all,

Any help with this problem would be *greatly* appreciated as I've been
stuck for over 24 hours now!

I can successfully subscribe/unsubscribe to my mailing list, process
administrative commands, approve messages before they go out, etc, but
cannot send out messages to the list.

When I try to do this the e-mail bounces with the following:
"| /usr/contrib/mh/lib/slocal -user mailroom"... unknown mailer error 1

I don't understand what user mailroom has to do with anything. (There is
already a mailroom user on my system whose home directory contains
.forward and .maildelivery files to handle mail for common usernames
under different virtual domain names. Incidentally, I get the exact same
unknown mailer error if I try sending an e-mail to mailroom@localhost)

My /etc/aliases files contains the following:

kn:  "|/usr/home/majordomo/majordomo-1.94.4/wrapper resend -l keynet
keynet-list"
majordomo: "|/usr/home/majordomo/majordomo-1.94.4/wrapper majordomo"
owner-keynet: george,
keynet-owner: george
keynet-list:  :include:/usr/home/majordomo/majordomo-1.94.4/lists/keynet

In case you wanted to know:
Majordomo version 1.94.4
Perl version 5.00401
OS: BSDI 2.1
Mailer: Sendmail

Here is what the bounced message looks like:
