I ran into the same problem when I upgraded sendmail to 8.12.x. That was
a long time ago, but if I remember correctly the problem turned out to be
lack of recognition of majordom as a trusted user in sendmail's
out-of-the-box submit.cf. Add "FEATURE(`use_ct_file')dnl" to your
submit.mc, rebuild submit.cf, and see what happens. If instead of listing
your trusted users in a sendmail.ct file you specify them in your
sendmail.mc, then do the same thing in submit.mc.
