Due to extremely intermittent line conditions please respond to me via the
address 'ccyr@home.com' as my own domain may not respond.
Well Agustin, I've done as you suggested to no avail. Here's what I've done:
Up'd LogLevel to 30, restarted sendmail. Removed the &>... portion from the
alias as it didn't yield anything anyways. 'Newaliases' was run.
Verified permissions manually, I can't see anything wrong. Re-ran './wrapper
config-test' as both the 'mail' user and my plain old user account, it says
all is fine. I've always had two files in the 'lists' directory, one is just
a touch'd file, the other is a lists file (1 address per line).
When I run: 'echo 'lists' | mail majordomo@sycore.ml.org', the following is
the output in the maillog (I posted the responding messages for these already):

Thus, for some reason it craps out and then properly hands it off (well
partially).
Also, the account that owns everything is: majordomo.daemon
RedHat must ship a 'sendmail.cf' that doesn't recognize the daemon group as
trusted.
-----
I've attempted to manually run the procedure. I 'su' to the 'mail' account
which sendmail is supposed to use to run these piped programs.
Running 'id' shows: uid=8(mail) gid=12(mail) groups=12(mail)
I have a test e-mail, '/tmp/test.msg', it is the following:

Again, thanks for any help in advance.
BTW if you or anyone else is wondering where I picked up the source, it was
from 'www.greatcircle.com/majordomo'.
