Playing around with the mbox module, I reached into the archives[1] to grab some real-world data files[2]. To successfully unpack the contents to an mbox file, I had to do the following:
bash$ gunzip 2012-July.txt.gz bash$ mv 2012-July.txt 2012-July.txt.gz bash$ gunzip 2012-July.txt.gz So it looks like some python-list@ archiving process is double gzip'ing the archives. Can anybody else confirm this and get the info the right people? -tkc [1] http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/ [2] http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2012-July.txt.gz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
