When replying, please strip mailto: URLs and @domain's from the
quoted headers so addresses are not farmable by webcrawlers.
At this point, I would have to guess that your domain is hosted,
your sendmail.cf is very far from a default install, sendmail
does not have the proper trust relationship with majordomo,
and/or the majordomo wrapper was not compiled properly.
>>>Majordomo: 1.94.5
>>>Perl: 5.8.0
>>>O/S: RedHat 8.0
>>>Sendmail: 8.12.5
The only difference between your installation and mine from the
information posted is that I am currently on sendmail 8.12.8.
The aliases I posted have been working since sendmail 8.8.8,
possibly longer. My memory isn't what it used to be. :(
I have no idea what dependencies or configuration requirements
there are between majordomo and postfix, but I am sure there
are plenty of users that follow this list that can help in that
regard too.
Considering you built majordomo from scratch, rather than using
the RPM install, is it possible the wrapper does not match your
majordomo environment? What uid:gid is your majordomo user?
Does `su - majordomo; wrapper config-test` look good? Does
the config-test report the same uid:gid as /etc/passwd does?
Even though the wrapper is suid root, it still needs to be
compiled with the correct majordomo ENVironment.
As for sendmail, considering the "test" aliases did not work,
but writing to an alias with an :include: directly works, I
could not say with high confidence that it's a sendmail issue.
Can you `grep -i "safe" sendmail.cf` and tell us what comes
back? What about smrsh (redhat default) and smmsp? Do you
have a link to /usr/local/majordomo/wrapper in /etc/smrsh?
Does your sendmail and your smmsp "trust" the majordomo user?
Is the clientmqueue directory read/write for smmsp? RedHat
sets procmail as the local delivery agent, which negates the
security benefit of smrsh. This may as well be removed from
the sendmail.mc file.
Since you are on a RedHat 8.0 OS, you might consider the RPM.
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/6.1/en/powertools/i386/majordomo-1.94.5-2.i386.rpm
The differences, are uid:gid=91:91, $HOME=/usr/lib/majordomo,
the link for smrsh is created automatically, and your lists
would be located in /var/lib/majordomo/lists. I think the
RPM even puts majordomo.cf in /etc. One thing about that
file though, the $whereami variable needs to be modified from
the default RPM install to match your hostname instead of
using a `hostname` or `dnsdomainname` command.
