installation woes

This is in a postfix environment using virtual domains and mailboxes, 
accounts are stored in an LDAP database....



I've configured majordomo and installed it thusfar, 
/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper config-test works fine...

I have a file called majordomo_aliases which contains the following:
majordomo:              "|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper majordomo"
owner-majordomo:        [email protected]
majordomo-owner:        [email protected]

and a line in my postfix main.cf file that reads:

virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual_alias, 
hash:/etc/postfix/majordomo_aliases

when I send a message to [email protected] I receive the following 
errors:

     mail_via_smtp: 550 5.1.0 <|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper 
[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in 
virtual mailbox table

and the longer version of said error:

    D693E1D0040: to=<|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper 
[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, 
relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1], delay=3, status=bounced (host 
127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 550 5.1.0 <|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper 
[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in 
virtual mailbox table (in reply to end of DATA command))

In some ways this made sense, there's no account so it gets rejected and 
it's appending @example.com which isn't needed, if I add a line in the 
virtual_alias file saying:

[email protected]   majordomo

then I get the following:

    EC6861D004F: to=<[email protected]>, relay=virtual, delay=1, 
status=deferred (mailbox //"|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper majordomo": 
cannot create file exclusively: No such file or directory)

Then I thought I'd try creating an entry directly in the LDAP database 
and set the mailbox to |/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper majordomo; however 
I still receive the following message:

    EC6861D004F: to=<[email protected]>, relay=virtual, delay=1, 
status=deferred (mailbox //"|/var/majordomo-1.94.5/wrapper majordomo": 
cannot create file exclusively: No such file or directory)


Anyone encountered this before or know a way around it?

Thanks,
