Re: MAJORDOMO ABORT (mj_majordomo)

Daniel,

I have not changed anything in majordomo.
I'm using sendmail with majordomo. I have several lists in majordomo for
many users.
But I started getting these messages just now. I'm not sure if my list
have a subscriber named root@ or postmaster@ address. Can I check it by
some script?

There are possibilities of one or more of several problems.  Have you
changed anything recently?  What mailer (MTA) do you have majordomo
configured with?

If you google on "MAJORDOMO ABORT" or MAILER-DAEMON and "mail loop"...

Do you have more than one list?  Does this happen on just one of them?
Does your list have a subscriber named root@ or postmaster@ address?

These days, with 90-95% of all email on the internet being spam, you
probably received a bounce message to your majordomo address. Check your
sendmail logs and your majordomo/Log for entries with the same or near
the same time stamp as your abort message to confirm.
