^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The problem is that @archive_dirs needs a directory
entry, while the alias for archive2.pl actually needs a
"base" filename, not a directory. Something like
"|/home3/majordomo/bin/wrapper archive2.pl -f /home3/majordomo/archive/test/test -d -a"
would create a file test.960601 in the directory.
This is one of the many confusing majordomoisms!
