majordomo is a series of perl scripts that are executed via /etc/aliases
file. If sendmail works locally, then majordomo should work, but its a
question of how you recieve mail. I would assume mail currently is pulled
in by POP, but does your local sendmail handle this ?

There was a HOWTO I read at somestage on how to setup multiple addresses
through one POP connection , but I can't remember which one it is.

hope this helps.

cya
