read the FAQ and it shows:
=============================
2.12 - I get "aliasing/forwarding loop broken"
[ Reported by Wade Williams ]
Some people have noted sendmail will generate a bounce message if you send
to a list, but the list file is empty (there are no subscribers). Add a
subscriber to the list and the error should go away.
You will also get this error if the permissions on the list file for that
list in the lists directory are too strict. If the list directory or list
file is not readable by sendmail, you will also get the error "Cannot open
/path/to/lists/listname: Permission denied". See Section 2.1 above for the
full discussion of how to correctly set permissions on directories and
files within Majordomo.
================================
yet this doesn't sound like it applies to Mj2 ...
So, what should I be looking at?
The problem is being seen in:

now, owners for that list is set to:

what else shoudl I be looking at here?
If it helps any, I'm running sendmail 8.11.1 and Cyrus IMAPd 2.0.7 ...
