Hi Bertrand,

By Linux 7.0, can we assume RedHat Linux?  If so, this flavor of linux
enables the sendmail "smrsh" feature by default.  Also, it might make
your majordomo life much easier if you did the install of majordomo from
the rpm included in the RedHat 6.1 powertools (updates).

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/6.1/en/powertools/i386/majordomo-1.94.5-2.i386.rpm

What is happening is that your sendmail is expecting to use smrsh.  In linux
this requires a root owned link to any binary you want sendmail to run in the
/etc/smrsh directory.

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           31 Oct 26 17:11 wrapper -> ../../usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper

PS. What were the results of `wrapper config-test`?
