OK, well, if someone writes this I'll be happy to include it.
Unfortunately I don't know anything about qmail, so I can't do it myself.
If you tell me what you need to know from the Majordomo core, though, I can
tell you how to interface.

That's all they have to do now, except that they have to keep the subject
reasonably intact and they have to put a word in the body. I wonder if
doing much more, like having special procedures just for qmail, doesn't go
too far. After all, if you want an MLM bound to qmail, you know where to
get one.
