I have a server running mailman 2.1.4 with several mailing lists. I would like to customize the archive templates used with list-1 while continuing to use the default archive templates with list-2, list-3, etc.
My first attempt, after some trial and error, was to place my customized
templates in /lists/list1/en/
This works when I regerate the arhcive by running the arch program
manually - it uses the custom templates instead of the default
templates. However, as soon as a new email comes through list-1,
whatever mechanism is used internally by mailman to update the archive
uses the default templates instead of my custom templates and overwrites
the archive index with the default look again.
I can't seem to find any location for my customized templates that will cause both arch and the mailman's automated archiving to use them.
For performance reasons, templates are cached in memory by executing runners, such as the archive runner.
If you change templates or add new per-list templates, for instance, you have to run mailmanctl -restart to get the qrunner to restart so that it will rebuild its template cache and in the process pick up new or changed templates.
Because /bin/arch always starts with its own empty template cache each time it runs you see the effects you noted.
Is it possible to customize the archive templates for a single list
without affecting other list archives and, if so, where do I put them so
they work with both arch and mailman?
