Yes, we do it all the time; it's an important part of making majordomo work.

To see it in work on your system do the following

  $ cat /etc/aliases.majordomo | grep include

then look at the permissions, ownerships, etc., in the paths shown on each 
of the returned lines.

Look at the files, too, to see the required structure (which is one valid 
email address per line).

If you still have trouble getting yours to work, check to make sure that 
each line is ended with a valid linux/unix newline character, i.e., if you 
ftp'd a file from your pc to your RaQ and didn't select "text file" it may 
not work.
