Hi,

I just installed majordomo 1.94.5 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 AS 
machine with sendmail 8.12.11. I tried at first to install it as 
majordomo:majordomo. All the pre-list tests ran fine, until I tried to 
send a test message to my test list. The error message in /var/log/maillog 
is as follows:
 
        Feb 26 01:53:00 rhelas4 sendmail[4903]: j1Q6r0ZW004903: 
j1Q6r0ZX004903: DSN: Can't create output

Then I realized that sendmail on the box was run as user mail. So I 
re-installed everything as majordomo:mail. I got the same error until I 
made /usr/local/majordomo group writable. Now, every time I send a test 
message to my test list, a file by the name wrapper resend -p bulk -l 
testlist testlist-outgoing appears in the /usr/local/majordomo directory 
with owner mail:mail. But it won't send the message to the list members. 
Here are my questions:
1) Should I install majordomo as majordomo:mail?
2) Do I have to make /usr/local/majordomo group writeable?
3) How do I make sendmail send my message?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
