... and then Ish Rattan says:

This sounds like a problem with your sendmail configuration.  An
address of "ishwar" is sufficient for sendmail to deliver it locally.
Majordomo, however, wants complete e-mail addresses and is rejecting it
because it lacks the host portion.

If you're configuring it using the m4 macros (as opposed to hacking
sendmail.cf by hand), try adding:

   FEATURE(`always_add_domain')

If you're hand editting sendmail.cf, you need to add something along the
lines of:

   SAddDomain=50
   R$* < @ $* > $*         $@ $1 < @ $2 > $3       already fully qualified
   R$+                     $@ $1 < @ *LOCAL* >     add local qualification

(In my own m4-generated config, the always_add_domain places the three
lines above just before the local mailer (Mlocal ...) definition.)
