As I tried to indicate in another post, there are possibilities other than a defect/lack in the Debian package that can cause what Alan observed. To elaborate a bit on <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2006-December/054908.html>, there are mm_cfg.py settings that can affect archiving in a particular installation. ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX = -1 disables archiving completely ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX = 1 disables pipermail leaving only .mbox archiving DEFAULT_ARCHIVE = No sets archive to No as the default for a new list, which setting might be overlooked by an inexperienced list owner. There are other settings that could cause pipermail archiving to fail or be bypassed for a particular installation. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
