Hi Jon,

as i recently have read here on the list, user migration is not that easy as you
thought.
Transferring users will work for the Linux unter the GUI, but your users will
never show up in the Web interface :(
That might be the cause of your majordomo problem too - MD simply doesn't know
your users.

HTH
