I assume your need is to archive the previous emails, you are not concerned with member migration. The archive used by mailman is stored in mbox format. If you can somehow grab your existing archive as a flat file (in mbox format or convert it) you could install the mbox file and run mailman/bin/arch to rebuild mailmans archive from the mbox file. -- John Dennis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
