Just a little help: You must edit the "majordomo" script which should be
under Majordomo home directory. All the commands (like help, who, info)  
are defined as subroutines. Search for "help" in this script and try to
understand the algorithm.. You can easily create a new command if you know
Perl or C.. Good luck..
