There is an old perl script, majordomo2mailman.pl, in the contrib
directory in the Mailman distribution that may or may not be helpful.

You need somehow to export the majordomo archive as a mbox format file
(a flat file with raw messages separated by lines that begin "From "
with email address and date), and then use Mailman's bin/arch tool to
build the archive from the mbox.
