 It was enevitable that I'd miss something!  The mainlog reads:

2002-09-13 11:16:16 17pnUm-0003KL-00 Neither the system_aliases director nor the address_pipe transport set a uid for local delivery of |/home/majordom/runtime/wrapper majordomo

Does that offer any enlightenment?  I'm afraid I'm not much of an exim buff - I'm just learning as I go.

On a side matter, why is majordomo not part of the debian distro?  I looked through the packages and saw mailman, which I guess is more the default mailing list software for debian.  Is it better than majordomo?

Thanks for your response,
