Hello, I had similar problems when I initally set up my majordomo server as well, but it eventually came down to me not having proper permissions set on some of the files and directories that majordomo uses. The easiest way that I found to trouble shoot the situation was to strip the test-list down to only the most basic functions, by temporarily removing all archive and digest stuff etc. After doing that, I was able to look at my sendmail logs and get a more accurate picture of what exactly was going on. In fact, some error messages started turning up that I had not seen when I had all of the bells and whistles configured. Play around with this for a bit, then let me know if there are more specific details that I can help you with. -- Damien Tougas Converging Technology Solutions, Inc.
