Your list is working exactly as expected. The intro
file you write is appended to the canned message from
majordomo.
This is a Good Thing, because many list owners would
likely forget to include some important information
such as uns*bscribing instructions.
If you want to modify the full text, you'll have to dig
into the actual code. It isn't hard; this is just a
perl script. Find a significant line of text from the
canned intro and grep the files in your majordomo
directory to find the one to work on. I don't remember
right off which one has this in it, but the standard
intro verbage is embedded in majordomo.
