I must correct myself. First-- The monthly archive is 9,000 messages (137,000 is the total in the entire archive going back for years). Second-- Not all messages are getting rewritten one newline at a time. Only those with "An HTML attachment was scrubbed..." get the rewrite. Still

[Mailman-Users] Archive looping

2015-09-01 Thread Joseph Brennan
We have a list with a very large archive, over 137,000 messages in a month. It catches system alerts. This might just be a bad idea. Maybe we should archive by day. But it's been all right for many months up to now. I'm looking for ideas on how to solve a problem with the archives.
