On my linux system, this crontab entry would look like this;

0 1 * * * /bin/echo mkdigest listname-digest listname-digest-doit `/bin/cat /var/lib/majordomo/lists/listname-digest.passwd` | /usr/bin/mail majordomo@my.domain

The above should all be "one line", and I would not run it from crontab
owned by root or majordomo.  It should be run from the <list-owner> crontab.
