I had this same problem - 1st) check permissions on the majordomo
directories  - read /Doc/list-owner-info
2) sendmail does not like sharing permissions 

drwxr-xr-x    2 majordom mail         4096 Jan  5 02:44 lists

****************************************

-rwxr-xr-x    1 majordom mail       mailinglist#1
-rw-rw----    1 majordom daemon     mailinglist#1.config
-rw-r--r--    1 majordom daemon     mailinglist#2
-rwxr-xr-x    1 majordom mail       walid-press-dist 


Hope this helps - it helped me.
