Check to see if your aliases file (usually located in /etc/mail) is
setup.  It
should have something like:

 owner-mandrakeusers: kompukit@naisp.net,nobody
mandrakeusers:                                         
  "|/path/to/wrapper resend              
   @/path/to/lists/lists/mandrakeusers.resend"
mandrakeusers-approval: owner-mandrakeusers           
mandrakeusers-itdo:
:include:/path/to/lists/lists/mandrakeusers,mandrakeusers-archive
owner-mandrakeusers-itdo:
owner-mandrakeusers                                  
mandrakeusers-request:                                                  
   "/path/to/wrapper request-answer mandrakeusers"
owner-mandrakeusers-request: owner-mandrakeusers                
mandrakeusers-archive: "|/path/to/wrapper archive -f
/path/to/lists/archives/mandrakeusers.archive/
mandrakeusers -m -a"       

Make sure that paths are correct and that you run newaliases
(successfully)
after you've modified the aliases file.

In my experience, majordomo and sendmail offer some of the biggest
challenges to
configurations (compared to things like apache, postgres, mhonarc, 1/2 a
million
public-domain cgi-perl scripts.  It takes a bit of time, but majordomo
does
work, and very well.
