You don't have the mylist.mbox file, because you didn't move it from the old installation. It was really the only archive file you needed to move. Without it, you can't rebuild the archives, and rebuilding is the way to fix the issues above. If you can get the .mbox file, then simply running bin/arch --wipe mylist will recreate the HTML archive and will fix the 'More Info on this List....' links. However, it is a good idea to first check the .mbox for unescaped From_ lines using bin/cleanarch. Where are you seeing the To: address in individual messages in the archive? Normally the HTML archive contains no message headers. If you are seeing this in quotes of prior posts, the only way to change that is to edit the .mbox prior to running bin/arch. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
