Well you are being harsh, and rude. I have been through the structure of
all the perl and config files and cannot find something to fix this that
does not have to do with rewriting the perl, which I do admit I can't
do. But that is about all I don't do, thank you.

No, my majordomo does not use separate .cf files for each domain. I
guess that is the problem. It seems to do perfectly well with the one,
and with resolving the list dir from the homepath of the domain calling
it. I guess that does not seem to work with MajorCool, which apparently
uses the listdir functions in MajorDomo, so don't freaking ask me why it
isn't getting the same function out of it that MajorDomo is.

Well duh. I said before it was looking in the /usr/local/majordomo/lists
dir instead of /usr/local/majordomo/www.darklock.com/lists dir, etc. for
each domain. There's no error in the logs. Just to be thorough, I just
checked. It's working perfectly except it expects the lists to be in the
aforementioned directory.
