a digest should never bounce back to the list. all mail from
majordomo should bounce to either the postmaster or majordomo-owner or
the list owner. your outbound headers are incorrect.

yes, all incoming messages go to either majordomo or resend. i
have patches for both.
resend: after line 226
if ( /^from:\s*(.+)/i )
{
$from = $1;
$from_last = 1;
if ( ( $1 =~ /first bozo/i )
|| ( $1 =~ /repeat as required/i ) ) {
&bounce("Kill Filter");
}
}
elsif ( defined($from_last) )
majordomo: after line 100
# reject mail form this address
# replace this with a generic facility
if ($[ <= index($hdrs{'from'}, 'first bozo')
|| $[ <= index($hdrs{'from'}, 'repeat for each bozo') ) {
&sendmail(TWIT, "postmaster", "$hdrs{'from'}");
print TWIT "major polluter stopped\n";
print TWIT "No action is required on your part.\n";
close(TWIT);
exit 0;
