It has been a while since I read that file, but apparently it is wrong.
Sendmail will NOT send messages to a list that lives in a directory
that has a group write bit enabled anywhere in the tree to that file.
If you have no "users" on the system with majordomo, try uncommenting
#O DontBlameSendmail=safe
in the sendmail.cf file.
If you DO have "users" on the same box as majordomo/sendmail,
chmod -R g-w /path/to/majordomo
chmod g-w / /path /path/to
