Jean-Francois,

Your file parse correctly on my machine.

Mmmm, Interesting. You're running that on what? Irix?

On linux.

Could you attach the amanda.conf file instead of putting it inline
in the mail, maybe the mailer and or remove something.

This file is parsed correctly, it must be a SGI specific bug.
Could you try the attached patch and send me the complete output of:
 amadmin stk_180-conf10 config
