/var/lib/mailman/archives/public/maillist is a symlink possibly left over from some other install or ???. In any case it points to /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/maillist - not to /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/maillist Either Mailman is mis-configured with PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_FILE_DIR naming the wrong path, although it's hard to see how that wouldn't create other havoc, or the symlink is just wrong and should be removed. >r...@enabled:/var/lib/mailman/bin# ls -l >/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/maillist >total 456 >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Jan 1 2006 2005-December >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 27928 Jan 1 2006 2005-December.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 10038 Jan 2 2006 2005-December.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Apr 5 2006 2006-April >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 604 Apr 5 2006 2006-April.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 464 Apr 6 2006 2006-April.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Aug 8 2006 2006-August >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 4084 Aug 8 2006 2006-August.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 2218 Aug 9 2006 2006-August.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Feb 28 2006 2006-February >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 160434 Feb 28 2006 2006-February.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 48348 Mar 1 2006 2006-February.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Jan 18 2006 2006-January >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 55258 Jan 18 2006 2006-January.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 19536 Jan 19 2006 2006-January.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Jun 26 2006 2006-June >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 7472 Jun 26 2006 2006-June.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 3327 Jun 27 2006 2006-June.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 Mar 20 2006 2006-March >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 27910 Mar 20 2006 2006-March.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 7689 Mar 21 2006 2006-March.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman list 4096 May 2 2006 2006-May >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 6626 May 2 2006 2006-May.txt >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 3241 May 3 2006 2006-May.txt.gz >drwxrwsr-x 34 mailman list 4096 Jun 26 2006 attachments >drwxrws--- 2 mailman list 4096 Aug 8 2006 database >-rw-r--r-- 1 mailman list 4013 Aug 8 2006 index.html >-rw-r----- 1 mailman list 992 Aug 8 2006 pipermail.pck -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
