Here's the howto: http://wiki.list.org/x/OAB0
But the short version is you want to edit listname.mbox/listname.mbox and then run bin/arch to regenerate the archives. Make sure to shut down mailman for the few minutes while you do this if you don't want to risk missing messages.

I've done this before but it's been a while, and I don't remember the answer - so maybe one of you kind folks will give me the answer and save me the research. When editing a Mailman pipermail archive to expunge one or more posts prior to using the arch utility to regenerate all the archive files, what's the master file that one needs to edit? - the listname.mbox file, the listname.txt file or the listname.txt.gz file? Is there a HOWTO somewhere on editing pipermail archives?
