This posting originally appeared on list-managers.  Posts about
majordomo operation should be done to the list
majordomo-users@greatcircle.com and not to list-managers.

You could try the Back Bay (as in Back Bay Boston, although we have
members all over New England) syadamin list bblisa@bblisa.org. You can
subscribe using majordomo@bblisa.org. Majordomo-users may also have an
answer if you can describe what is happening.

What perl version? Nothing I have access to (4.019-4.036) complains
about it.  Note that majordomo only is designed to work with 4.035 or
above.

Yes and no. Technically @ARGV[0] is an array slice of one element,
namely $ARGV[0]. There is however no real reason to have an array
slice there, so I have changed it to a simple variable dereference for
version 1.90.
