I hope you have this solved by now, but I went three weeks without
receiving the list due to my own aggressive anti-spam rules.

Hopefully, your wrapper is suid root.  If not, chmod 4755 wrapper.

If this still does not help, it means your wrapper is not compiled
properly to match your installation.  Look in the Makefile for 
W_USER and W_GROUP.  While you are at it, make sure W_HOME matches
what you have in /etc/passwd and that this matches in majordomo.cf 
too.
