Hi All,
I am facing problem in majordomo aliases in RH 5.0 box and
sendmail-8.8.7. I have made an entry in /etc/sendmail.cf file as
"OA/usr/test/majordomo-1.94.4/majordomo.aliases". As and when I send mail
to a list called 'aris-net' following message appears.

sending error: 451 hash Map "Alias1": Unsafe map file /....

During installation I made a user 'majordomo.daemon' with UID 123 and GID
45. The 'daemon' has GID 2 which is probably used by sendmail. Subscribe
and unsubscribe command go well but mail sent to 'aris-net' returns with
following points.
