Have you checked the permission on /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases? The "newaliases" command creates aliases for all of the alias files that are listed in sendmail.cf. Looks like someone was added to majodomo.aliases, that's why it is out of date.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Problem with aliases, I think
I'm suddenly having a problem with permissions with my mailing lists. I received the following "Returned mail" when trying to submit a post:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
:include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/wordstar
(expanded from: wordstar-list)
----- Transcript of session follows -----
451 4.0.0 hash map "Alias1": unsafe map file /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases.db: Permission denied
550 5.2.4 :include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/wordstar... Cannot open /usr/local/majordomo/lists/wordstar: Permission denied
I checked the files and they seemed fine. The permissions for majordomo.aliases.db and majordomo.aliases are the same: 644. The majordomo directory has a permission of 755.
I ran newaliases and received the following message.
Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail 8.12.9 supports version 10, .cf file is version 9
/etc/mail/aliases: 7 aliases, longest 122 bytes, 592 bytes total
hash map "Alias1": unsafe map file /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases.db: Permission denied
WARNING: cannot open alias database /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases
Cannot create database for alias file /usr/local/majordomo/majordomo.aliases
Is the .cf file it's referrring to majordomo.cf or sendmail.cf? What is hash map "Alias 1"? What do you suggest I do?
Thanks for your help.
