Hmm, a google search for "majordomo2" pulls up my page (http://www.hpc.uh.edu/majordomo) as the third hit. My page isn't hugely informative (as I'm pretty bad at doing web pages) but it does tell you how to get the source (via CVS or nightly snapshots) and join the development mailing list (mj2-dev-request@csf.colorado.edu).

Possibly they are preventing access to the uid/gid that sendmail use to check this ('daemon' on most systems). If you want to be restrictive, you will probably have to put that directory into the sendmail default group, and give it the group 'x' permission.
