Hi Friends. I have noticed that this list's archives include 3 months
which have not happened yet.
How has this occurred, and what will happen when we reach that date
and new posts crash into the improperly dated archives?
As Dragon notes, this is because the original posts had bad Date:
headers. In more recent Mailman versions, this is prevented by (from
Defaults.py)
ARCHIVER_CLOBBER_DATE_POLICY = 2
ARCHIVER_ALLOWABLE_SANE_DATE_SKEW = days(15)
Nothing bad will happen when we reach those dates. In fact, it's
happened before. IIRC, there were '2008' posts from years back that we
have already caught up to.
More importantly, how does one search the mailman archives looking
for all posts that contain particular text?
