Only by the archive builder. Specifically, AFAIK you are correct, Pipermail will split an mbox to messages on any line matching "^From ", and leave any ">From " lines in the resulting archive. There are two ways to improve on this. Generic: Leave the ">" in the mbox file, and use the macro afterward on the split HTML. (I think this is what the cleanarch script does.) Site-specific: use a more accurate regexp to identify the message separator, possibly augmented by looking for an empty line before and a RFC 822 header afterward. Then you can clean up the mbox file. The generic method is actually more accurate (in some contexts people actually do post headers in message bodies :), so I recommend it. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
