This doesn't help you much now, but this is why it is a good idea
to keep anything that stores data (mail, temp directories, etc) on
a separate partition from your / directory.
On that note... is there anything to look out for with moving the
archives elsewhere? Can they just be moved and a symlink put in
their place? Or is it best to define the path in a config file
(and if so, which one)?
They can just be moved and a symlink used, as long as your web server
doesn't object. I'm pretty sure I did this on one server that had
some poorly chosen partition sizes and the list archive data wound up
having to go on its own hard drive for a while.
Just watch that you shutdown mailman for a minute while you move
files and set up the simlink so that it's not trying to write to
space that gets pulled out from under it.
