I'm a solaris/linux sysadmin who's recently taken over the site administration of a mailman system after the departure of the guy who set the system up. We're currently running an older version of mailman (2.1.4) but we're in the process of upgrading to 2.1.8 and migrating to a more substantial machine.
In the meantime we're having serious space issues with the current machine, and I have a question about the way the messages are stored here. In the archive directories under the list name messages seem to be stored in three places, all by month. For example we have 2005-October (the directory with the individual messages as html) 2005-October.txt (a complete mbox for the month), and the same file gzipped up. First question -- do we really need the zipped up copy, while the unzipped version is in the directory? Are there any local settings we can do to optimize space until we've moved to the new machine?
