Hello,

I think I have found some bugs in majordomo-1.94.4: sendmail-8.9.3 forced
me to take away group write permissions from some files in
/var/lib/majordomo:

When I try to create a new mailinglist according to NEWLIST, it does not
work. After a "config" or "newconfig" command I simply get

	>>>> config mailinfo mailinfo.admin

	#[Last updated Wed Apr 28 16:37:35 1999]

The config file is empty then. I also have run the installation test
script, and it found no errors. Therefore I assume two bugs:

1) The test script is nor correct.
2) The work program ignores some errors like write problems to files.
