[arm-allstar] Tail Message Error

Hi Steve,

The syntax of the tailmessagelist doesn't allow spaces, etc. Only a list 
exactly like:

tailmessagelist=sound_file1,sound_file2,sound_file3,sound_fileN

So, try this format:

tailmessagelist=/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt/bkfst,/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rpt/meeting
