The recommended method to reduce or change your archive is to edit the file .../private/etrans-echanges.mbox/etrans-echanges.mbox and remove the older messages from the file. Once you have done this, you can run /usr/local/mailman/bin/arch --wipe etrans-echange You can also try and figure out which message in the mbox file you want to start archiving (instead of deleting them from the file) and run .../bin/arch --start=N --wipe etrans-echange At least this should get you started. -- John DeCarlo, My Views Are My Own ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
