Mark, Yes, you're right about the list.mbox file. This was given to me by someone else and I was surprised that the mbox file wasn't included. Does this mean that a new mbox file will be created with the next post? How do messages append to the archive if there is no mbox file? I have other lists that have been archiving for years and have no mbox file. I guess I am a bit confused by the use of the mbox file for archives.
