Two things; First, make sure you have a majordomo (or majordom) in your
/etc/passwd file so that majordomo is also a valid user on your system.
Second, you need to check your sendmail.cf for "O AliasesFile" and be
sure you have included a fully qualified path to your majordomo.aliases
file. You can do this all on one line or across multiple lines.
Examples;
# location of alias file
O AliasFile=/etc/aliases
O AliasFile=/etc/mail/majordomo.aliases
# location of alias file
O AliasFile=/etc/aliases,/etc/mail/majordomo.aliases

I am afraid I cannot help you with how long it takes to get a message
posted. I have noticed some of my posts also take a long time to get
into the list, but others arrive almost instantly. This would probably
be a question for majordomo-owner at greatcircle.
