I am running Mailman 2.1.11 from an Ubuntu/Debian package I created
from the SourceForge source.
I have a question about list archives. I have a list that I
converted from Majordomo to Mailman in July, 2007. I was helping
one of the list owners in managing the list, and I went to the list
archives. The web page has all of the combined archives that I copied
from Majordomo; they go back to May, 1996. When I went to the Mailman
file
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox
that file contains only the last two postings - Jul 2007 and
Feb 2008. When I go to
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/LISTNAME
I see all of the archive files for each month:
1998-July
1998-July.txt
1998-July.txt.gz
How do I rebuild the
LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox
file? I have the collected mbox file from Majordomo, and I can easily
pre-pend it to the current LISTNAME.mbox file. Is that all I have to
do? Or do I need to run
bin/arch --wipe
Thanks.
