I will have to look carefully at that mbox format. There are definately messages in it. Thunderbird reads it OK, but maybe Thunderbird is more forgiving of mbox formatting. The messages orginated in Lyris ListManger. They have a script to export to mbox format. New messages sent to the list get appended to the end of the mbox file OK and do display in the archive. --Karl ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
