Hi Ruben,

    You *MAY* be experiencing the same thing that happened to us when we
upgraded to SuSE11.2.  We're using sendmail instead of postfix, but were
seeing error messages in logfiles similar to:

    $* is no longer supported at /usr/local/lib/majordomo/digest line xxx
    $* is no longer supported at /usr/local/lib/majordomo/majordomo.pl line=
 xxx

    My understanding is that the majordomo.pl Perl script was written in
"old-style" Perl, using the deprecated function "$*".  SuSE11.2 includes Pe=
rl
5.10, which no longer supports "$*".

    Note that I never tried using the version of Majordomo that comes with
OpenSuSE 11.2.  You might want to give the OpenSuSE supplied .rpm a whirl; =
they
may have already fixed this problem.

    Someone else did a better job explaining how they got around the issue
than I ever could.  They even created a patch for majordomo.pl.  See:

Message-ID: <[email protected]>

Hello

I have this puzzle that I can't figure out.  I had my mailing list
working on openSuSE 11.2
with postfix and majordomo.  I've been using majordomo on sendmailf or
years with no trouble.
I moved to postfix with no trouble and now, suddenly I'm getting nothing
through to my lists.

Everything says status=3Ddeferred(temporary failure).  I have no idea what
is happening.  I've
done a shake out with post fix and it seems to be relaying through the
aliases fine.  So, I
think I might have somehow messed up my majordomo set up, but I can't
find anything
for the life of me.
