Looks good.  So, by the comment directly above these variables in
majordomo.cf:

# Majordomo will look for "get" and "index" files related to $list in
# directory "$filedir/$list$filedir_suffix", so set $filedir and
# $filedir_suffix appropriately.  For instance, to look in
# /usr/local/mail/files/$list, use:
#   $filedir = "/usr/local/mail/files";
#   $filedir_suffix = "";               # empty string
# or to look in $listdir/$list.archive, use:
#   $filedir = "$listdir";
#   $filedir_suffix = ".archive";

majordomo will look for files in /usr/local/majordomo/archive/testanne/.
(The suffix can indeed be empty.)

AM> testanne-archive: "|/prog/majordomo/wrapper archive2.pl -f
AM>    /prog/majordomo/archive/testanne -D -a"

You've told it to use names like:

/usr/local/majordomo/archive/testanne.xxxxxx

which isn't where you told the index and get commands to look.  Perhaps you
wanted:

testanne-archive: "|/prog/majordomo/wrapper archive2.pl -f
    /usr/local/majordomo/archive/testanne/testanne -D -a"

Indeed, you have it creating the files in a place different from where you
have it looking for files.
