Because I have a place where people register themself as a user (ref. 
http://www.dahl-stamnes.net/Stmbk/) and I whish to make a list where some 
users shall be allowed to send emails to all registered users. When they are 
registered as a user they are automatically in the list.

A user may change his profile (which contain both a primary and a secondary 
e-mail adresse) and I want majordomo to use the adresses stored in the SQL 
database.
I know that other mailing lists are able to use SQL databases directly, so why 
can't majordomo use it?

Today it works by using a perl script which create the files. But since the 
script is run by cron, it may cause delays.
