Then the recent posts are probably not in the
archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox file, perhaps because of
some permissions error. If that is the reason, they are probably all
shunted and in the shunt queue. If so, you will find error messages
and tracebacks in Mailman's error log and running bin/unshunt will
probably archive the messages assuming the permissions or whatever
issue has been fixed.

Ah! I was relying on check_perms and did not look directly at the error
logs.

Ok, so I ran...

chown -hR mailman private/

... and changed the owner of everything in there to the mailman user. I
then ran...

./unshunt

... which took a long time to process, and then I ran...

./arch listname

... which did not seem to have resolved the issue, so I ran...

[r...@domain bin]# ./arch --wipe listname
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox

... which resulted in ...
