That is not necessary. The archives are always in archives/private/. The only thing in archives/public is a symlink from archives/public/listname to archives/private/listname and a second symlink from archives/public/listname.mbox to archives/private/listname.mbox if PUBLIC_MBOX = Yes in mm_cfg.py. These symlinks are created or removed as an archive is changed from private to public or vice versa. If an archive is changed from public to private, the only issue is that any saved 'pipermail' URLs will no longer work. If it is changed from private to public, saved 'private' URLs will still work, but will still require authentication. Rebuilding the archive with bin/arch --wipe has no effect on any of this. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
