I don't know about the equivalence thing with MAJORDOMO.

I've never used a non-VM/CMS mail system to EDIT a list-header.  As a
matter of fact, I continue to be amazed at how Eudora does things (to my
message) esp. with word wrapping, hard returns, HTMLized text, signatures,
etc.

I've been using the WEB int.f for list-header maintenance for one of the
lists that I operate.
