Matt, maybe you know this and have the above configuration
set just for testing - but the way it is set up right now,
any spammer can send mail to your entire list by simply
mailing to:
test-l-outgoing@xxxxxxxxx
(Assuming you get it all working)
That's why I don't like majordomo, by the way - there really
is no way to protect against this that I know of, but you
can configure it so that (1) the "outgoing" address is not
something easy to guess, but is essentially treated as if it
were a password, like: test-l-3g5iou9 - and (2) the resend
line is configured so that the "outgoing" address doesn't
show up in the headers.
