help help :/
	i've been tring to setup majordomo and have done the following:

1 made '/etc/smail/lists' dir
2 did ln -s /var/lib/majordomo/lists /etc/smail/lists
3 added to /etc/smail/directors:
	aliasinclude:
		driver=aliasinclude,nobody;
		copysecure,copyowners
and
	lists:
		driver=forwardfile,
		caution,
		nobody,
		sender_okay,
		owner=owner-$user;
		file=lists/${lc:user}

4 made sure the proper aliases were in the /etc/aliases file
	majordomo: "|/usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper majordomo"
	list-request: "|/usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper majordomo"
	majordomo-owner: adren
	owner-majordomo: adren
and
	hottub-owner: adren
	hottub-approval: adren
	owner-hottub: hottub-owner
	hottub-request: majordomo
	hottub: :include: /etc/smail/lists/hottub

5 made a list-file 'hottub' in /var/lib/majordomo/lists which is also in
the /etc/smail/lists dir

	when sending mail to majordomo for help or lists it sends the
correct info back to me. if i send to the list i get the mail returned
with 'no such recipient'.  

	on another subject i find that sending mail locally is fine but
sending mail to a diff site it lags for about 30 - 45 seconds. i have
noticed a few time even longer. any ideas what causes this mail to hang
for this amount of time?

thanx for any help -rob

I think you don't want a space there.  You may need to quote the whole
address, as well.

>5 made a list-file 'hottub' in /var/lib/majordomo/lists which is also in

Have you read the majordomo `README' file wrt permissions, etc.  Note
that recent versions of the `base' package broke the Majordomo
package, don't know if it's been fixed yet.

>with 'no such recipient'.  

Might need to see the full bounce.

Things work fine for me without messing around with /etc/smail/lists
or the lists director.
