The text/plain attachment was allowed, but the message was too big. I
trimmed the attachment leaving only a few relevant parts. See my
comments inline and at the end.

There were many lists as above.

And I think this is the list of interest.

Most lists are like this with no files.

But a few like the above have the default index.html

And here, it liiks like at one time the mailman list actually had an
archived message, but it's gone.

And our list has the default index.html

And there are no symlinks in archives/public.


Here's what I see - most lists do not have even the default 'empty'
index.html. For those few that do, the list's all seem to have been
created on or after Jan 20. Thus, I think issue # 1 is there is some
process that runs periodically (manually or via cron) that removes all
files or all files older than x from the archives/private/ directory.

Issue #2 is once again an obvious thing to have checked, but I think
archiving must be disabled in mm_cfg.py with

ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX = -1

This is the only thing that explains the lack of symlink(s) in
archives/public for lists with public archives.
