I'm running much the same setup (sendmail 8.12.8-9.80, majordomo 1.94.5)
but I've not seen this behavor.

That might be the problem, I seem to remember that the default
sendmail.mc used to make the sendmail.cf when I first set the box up
that has majordomo on it was less than optimal. What is in your
sendmail.mc? Do you have the 8.11 sendmail.mc that was used to make the
previous sendmail.cf to compare?

If your using 8.12 is smrsh configured? If so did you replace the
wrapper link in /etc/smrsh to point it to the majodomo wrapper? Not sure
that would cause the odd mailing, it's been a long time since I had to
set up majordomo. :)

I've heard it said that the proof of lunacy is when you repeat the same
