RedHat 6.2 comes with sendmail 8.9.3. If you install the RPM for version
8.11.2, be sure to also install the new sendmail-cf and sendmail-doc RPMs
with the -U (update) argument to rpm. In my opinion, these should all be
one RPM, but who am I to complain?
For a generic test list, the aliases you created look "OK", but I would
take some undocumented steps to tighten up security some.
1) Never call your delivery address listname-list (too easy for spammers
to guess).
2) Use ,nobody in your listname alias so the delivery address is not
advertised in the received: headers of your distributed mail.
test: "|/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper resend -l test test-list,nobody"
3) I would suggest a test-owner alias that refers back to owner-test.
test-owner: owner-test
