-----From the sendmail 8.9 FAQ Question 3.32:
Now the differences that make this work that may not be the same as
instructed by the majordomo instructions:
1)  Put the majordomo.aliases file in /etc, not in the majordomo install
directory.
2)  Make the permissions on /usr/local/majordomo 0751, not 0775.
3)  Make the permissions on /usr/local/majordomo/Log 0664, owned by
majordomo, group majordomo.
4)  /usr/local/majordomo/lists is mode 0755, owner majordomo, group
majordomo
5)  The permissions owners for the lists should be 

0755  majordomo.majordomo  /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/lists/
0664  majordomo.majordomo  /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/lists/abt
0660  majordomo.majordomo  /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/lists/abt.config
0664  majordomo.majordomo  /usr/local/majordomo-1.94.4/lists/abt.info

------End quote

The only difference between sendmail's recommendation and my working
system are that I have all groups set to daemon (ie majordomo.daemon)

Most traditional Pee-Cee user groups, I've noticed, function mainly as
commiseration societies for people who've bought lousy hardware, are
struggling and wasting time trying to deal with it, and want to exchange
coping-strategy tips with others in the same boat.  --  Rick Moen
