Majordomo's junk-mail problem is same as yours, but several thousand
times worse, to the point that everything other than dev/null for
admin-commands (to majordomo@) would affect normal list-
distribution....we are working on a structural solution, with new
equipment, all previous attempts have not been good enough sadly.
Donations are always welcome of course....;))
For providers, it's fighting an uphill battle, and Majordomo is only
part of that.
In the mean time, you can read through Yahoogroups of course, if you
must pull the plug on that other account (or keep it only for posting
rights).
