But you neglected to back up <mailman>/archives/private/club.mbox
Aha! - a real n00b mistake. I wrongly assumed that club.mbox was transient incoming stuff.
So now you have the list and its pipermail archive, but you don't have the cumulative club.mbox/club.mbox file containing the archive as a mbox.
Luckily I made this mistake on a modest list with few members and little traffic.
It got distributed or you wouldn't have received it. It also got archived which is why it's in <mailman>/archives/private/club.mbox/club.mbox which is an archive and has nothing to do with message delivery. All the past messages should be there too except you didn't back them up and restore them.Then I sent a small message to the list.
Ok, This is very helpful.If a message goes out correctly, what does this look like in <mailman>/logs/smtp ?
