MD is telling you that the archive script is trying to write to 
/usr/local/etc/majordomo/Archives/gpnnet but it does not exist.  I am 
assuming you at one time had archiving set up for a list called gpnnet?

If you do and want the list to be archived, this can be resolved by 
making sure that the dir path exists and that MD can write to it.  If 
not, you should remove the alias that archives.  In a sendmail 
setting, the aliases will look something like this - to get rid of 
the archiving, you would get rid of the test-archive reference in 
line 2 and remove the last alias altogether:

test: "|/usr/local/majordomo/demime '== /usr/local/majordomo/wrapper 
resend -l test test-list,nobody'"
test-list: :include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/test, test-archive, 
test-digestify
test-digestify: "|/usr/local/majordomo/digest -r -C -l test-digest 
test-digest-outgoing"
test-digest: test
test-digest-outgoing: :include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/test-digest
test-archive:  "|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper archive -f 
/usr/local/majordomo/archives/test/test -a -M"

I hope that is not too much information....
