[Python-Dev] Mailing List archive corruption?
Hi, When I look at the mailing list archive for python-dev, I see some odd stuff at the bottom of the page: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2010-January/thread.html#95232 Anyone know what's happened?

No doubt, you've now broken every link anyone had ever made into the python-dev archives, because now all the article numbers are different. BTDT...unfortunately... Pipermail really is quite crappy, sigh. Anyhow, when I did that, I went back to a backup to get the original article numbers, and edited the mbox file escaping From lines or adding additional empty messages until the newly regenerated article numbers matched the originals. I'd highly recommend going through that painful process, since I suspect a *lot* of people have links to the python-dev archive. Hope you have a backup (or can find caches on google or archive.org or something).

Hope you have a backup (or can find caches on google or archive.org or something). bin/cleanarch uses a set of heuristics to find unescaped From lines and fix them. It's generally pretty good, but it certain can change message numbers (and sadly, their urls). -Barry signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
