Hi majordomo-users.  This seems like a problem with an obvious solution,
but I have been banging my head against the wall for a couple of hours
now and have not found the answer.  I installed majordomo 1.94 on my
Linux box via an RPM file.  (This is my first experience with
majordomo.)  I have set up a list called "testing", following each step
in the directions carefully.  I have compared my setup with that on
another Linux box.  My /etc/aliases and /etc/majordomo.cf files are (as
far as I can tell) set up properly.  Yet I keep getting an error when I
submit a message to the testing list to the effect that "wrapper is not
available for sendmail programs"; note that I got exactly the same
message when, in mucking with the /etc/aliases file, I had specified the
wrong directory for wrapper -- one that didn't even exist.  So it is as
if wrapper isn't being found.  Yet it is indeed there in the specified
directory (/usr/lib/majordomo), with the correct permissions.

I would really appreciate some suggestions here.  I include the error
message I get when I try to subscribe to the list in question below; I
get a similar message no matter what I send to the list.  Can anyone see
what might be wrong?  I'd be much obliged.

Chris Menzel
