Bloody annoying, that is. Just edit the digest script, look for
Receiving, and delete the print STDOUT line, that's printed when a
message is sent to the -digestify address. When you're actually making
the digests, I just call
/usr/majordomo/wrapper digest ....
directly, I can't see any point sending it through Exim when you have
direct access to it.

It doesn't fail, no, but Exim thinks it has.
