Part of the problem lies in the fact that you are not sending plain text
messages to majordomo.  Even though the Context-Type says it is, it is
coming in as an attachment rather than part of the body of the message.

Second, you might want to look over the list-owner-info file that comes
with majordomo.  It should clear up what you are trying to do with the
.intro file.
