The error you are receiving is sendmail related, not majordomo. Even
though majordomo is in the filename. Comments inserted below.

You should see this error any/every time a newaliases command is run. (If
you have set an additional aliases entry in sendmail.cf.)

any-name.db (aliases, majordomo.aliases, etc) is created from their
matching any-name file when the newaliases command is executed.
Grep majordomo.aliases sendmail.cf, edit that part out if you do not
intend to use it, and you are getting by just fine without it anyway.
Let me back up and regroup..... Looking at your error message,
You have an error on line 14 of /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases.
The line is missing a colon (:)
If this file does not exist on your system, you are receiving a message
from excite.com explaining the problem, which is also where it needs to
be fixed.
It also appears that your excite.com users are over their quotas.
