| Anyone able to help me with a cron script to send a message from a text
| database to a majordomo list?

fortune /some/path/to/this/text/database | mail my-majordomo-list

...?

if the database is actually more database-ish (not a "message of the day"), then you could always do

some_script_that_prints_out_info | mail my-majordomo-list
