I'm currently setting up Majorcool on our system, to simplify our client's
list setups and maintenance.  I noticed that when it tried to change the
password, it sent a 'passwd' command to majordomo.  I looked into the
source code, and it apparently creates a <list>.passwd file, instead of
fixing the line in <list>.config, so the password is never actually
changed.

I was just wondering if there was a patch to switch it from the
<list>.password addition, to searching through the .config file, and
replacing the appropriate line.
