I suspect it means that there's something wacky with your ISP's mail transfer
agent.  That's not majordomo, it appears to be something called DSMTP, from a
company in New Zealand that makes a popular (but unrelated) product called
DNEWS. 

I had no trouble provoking that error message when I connected to AOL's
server and tried sending mail commands out of the standard order.
