Subject: Archive Directory Syntax

I believe I am one among many who are slightly confused about the syntax 
for entering archive directories in majordomo.cf.

If I am using the archive2.pl script, is the following correct:-

@archive_dirs = ( "/usr/local/mail/archive/firstlist", \
                  "/usr/local/mail/archive/secondlist", \
                 "/usr/local/mail/archive/lastlist" \
                );

The above is the only way I could get things to work. However, it seems 
to cause some problems when other programs parse the file - they complain 
about spurious backslashes etc.

I would apreciate any constructive advice.

Tom
