Subject: archiving isn't working

I don't get it: is the list archive a file or a directory?  
I chose directory and it doesn't work, though I'm not sure why.
The relevant (?) majordomo.cf entry looks like: 

$filedir = "/usr/local/mail/majordomo/archive";
$filedir_suffix = "";

while the aliases look like:

#
# test mailing list
#
tester: "|/usr/local/mail/majordomo/wrapper resend -p bulk -M 10000
          -l tester -f owner-tester -h csrp.tamu.edu -s
          tester-outgoing"
owner-tester: tester-owner
tester-owner: neils@csrp2.tamu.edu
tester-request:"|/usr/local/mail/majordomo/wrapper request-answer tester"
tester-outgoing: :include:/usr/local/mail/majordomo/lists/tester,
                  tester-archive
owner-tester-outgoing: tester-owner
tester-archive: /usr/local/mail/majordomo/archive/tester
owner-tester-archive: tester-owner
tester-approval: tester-owner
 
and the listings look like:

/usr/local/mail/majordomo
-rw-rw-r--   1 majordom Major       6200 May 10 16:08 Log
drwxrwsr-x   5 majordom Major        512 May 10 10:59 archive/
drwxrwsr-x   4 majordom Major       1024 May  9 15:20 bin/
drwxrwsr-x   2 majordom Major        512 May 10 15:49 lists/
-r--r--r--   1 majordom Major       1574 May  9 17:26 majordomo.cf
-rwsr-xr-x   1 root     Major       8061 May  9 15:17 wrapper*

and

/usr/local/mail/majordomo/archive
drwxrwsr-x   2 majordom Major        512 May 10 09:29 csrplist/
drwxrwsr-x   2 majordom Major        512 May 10 10:43 tccslist/
drwxrwsr-x   2 majordom Major        512 May 10 10:59 tester/

So what's wrong with that? Why doesn't it archive the test messages 
I sent to the list "tester" -- the directory 
              /usr/local/mail/majordomo/archive/tester
is empty, and remains so.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
