sendmail doesn't like world-writable directories.  Change permissions to
750 or 755, as recommended in the FAQ.

:I did verify that the chmod 644 for the
:/var/lib/majordomo/lists/testlist file is appropriate, as is the
:others.  However, here is the directory listing, just to be sure. 

Those are your file permissions not your directory permissions.
