Hi,

I'm currently setting up a MajorDomo Mailing List on our Ultrix 4.4 Mail
Server and I've tracked down a weird mail delivery problem to
/usr/bin/mail. The problem is that the list-owner is not getting any
e-mail from the list, even though sendmail 8.9.2 reports that the e-mail
has successfully been sent.

The command invoked by sendmail to send the local mail is:

# /usr/bin/mail -r owner@opera.tu-graz.ac.at -d tom

When this is started as root, mail is delivered correctly.

However, when this is started as user "majordomo", I get:

mail: unexpected username length, greater than 8 characters

This is the reason for the majordomo list mail delivery to fail.

So my question: Is there a /usr/bin/mail drop in replacement for the stock
Ultrix 4.4 /usr/bin/mail command? I know of programs like "procmail" etc.
but this is an overkill for me by far as everything else works flawlessly.

Thanks // Tom
