Thanks for the fast responce.

Hmm, basically:

$ cd /usr/local/site/majordomo/lib
$ grep message_footer **/*(.)                <-- that's zshism
$ less Mj/Resend.pm
   .. looking ..
$ less Majordomo.pm
   .. looking more ..
   .. saying ahhhaa! ..

Though, I would qualify myself as a rather experienced with Perl 5.  :-)

What I like about mj2 is that it is much better structured [than mj1],
so it should not be difficult for a person with basic p5 modules
knowledge to find such things as this one.
