Yes, let's be clear about this.

Most other list managers support multiple delivery methods for a single 
list -- you're on the list "foo" and receive single messages, or you're 
on the list "foo" and receive digests...  But Majordomo 1 only supports 
one delivery method for each list, so you set up separate "foo" and 
"foo-digest" lists, and people subscribe to one or the other, then you 
rig your aliases so that mail sent to "foo" is sent to a processing 
alias for "foo-digest" (so it will eventually be delivered to the 
"foo-digest" subscribers), and so that mail to "foo-digest" is 
redirected to "foo" (so posters can post to either).
