You have put your finger on a bug in Majordomo;) Majordomo 1.94.5 can be
patched to correct its behavior; you can download the patch from:
ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/majordomo-patches/1.94.5/majordomo.7
Here is an excerpt from the comments in the patch:
________________________________________________________________________
# This patch will fix a bug in majordomo dealing with <List>.intro file.
# The patched majordomo will send only the contents of <List>.intro file
# if one exists, without prepending the standard majordomo greeting.
#
# To apply the patch:
#
# - Save the patch to a file on your Majordomo server.
# - Login as Majordomo user, (e.g. majordom.)
# - In Majordomo home run the following command:
#
# patch < /path/to/majordomo.7
