My experience with Mailman is exactly that also ... it is great for the
end user, but crap from an admin side fo things, especially if you want to
do sstuff from the command line ...

there really is no reason why things for majordomo are "pivoting" on me,
since, as Alvaro has admitted, and I have, there is more then one of us
that knows the system ...
