Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman Archives page not updating
You're using the wrong arch; there's an arch command that tells you your machine's architecture (i.e. i686). What you'll want to do is go into /usr/lib/mailman/bin and execute ./arch and similarly for cleanarch ./cleanarch from there to make sure that you're executing the right thing. Or you can use the whole path (/usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch) to ensure that you're running the command you want to be running. (This is happening because your machine (sensibly) doesn't look for executables in the current path. I'm sure there's a nice tutorial as to why and how to work like this if you're curious.)

When I look at the log, it is only processing archives though June 2008, even though it's a fairly active list and has had as many as 25 posts a day in the last few weeks. First, if you are trying to rebuild the entire archive, you should be specifying --wipr ti bin/arch, BUT first verify that the archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox has the complete archive.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman Archives page not updating
Hello I'm relatively new to mailman. I've searched the mailman lists and tried to find a solution to my issue but nothing. Has anyone encountered the below issue and could offer some help. I recently moved mailman from one server to another.I tarred up the old archives and moved them to the new server, and simply untarred them into: /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/[list-name] The system has been running for a few months now and I have noticed that the archives list doesn't show anything past the month when I moved over to the new server. When I log onto the server, I can see the messages in .txt files for the following months after the move. However, when I vi the index.html it looks the same as the site i.e. no months following the server move. Is there a command I can run to update the archives webpage? Ideally I would like the archives webpage to update automatically again. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Anthony ___ Rise to the challenge for Sport Relief with Yahoo!

The archives are always in the archives/private/ directory. The archives/public/ directory just contains symlinks to the corresponding archives/private/[list-name] directories. Also did you move /archives/private/[list-name].mbox/ from the old server. If not, you will never be able to rebuild your complete archive from scratch.

Ideally I would like the archives webpage to update automatically again. First you need to straighten out your archive file locations. You should have archives/private/[list-name]/ containing the html archives and pipermail data for the list. archives/private/[list-name].mbox/[list-name].mbox the cumulative .mbox archive archives/public/[list-name] a symlink to archives/private/[list-name] but if the symlink doesn't exist, Mailman will create it for a public archive the first time the list is accessed. Then, if as I suspect, archives/private/[list-name].mbox/[list-name].mbox contains only the post-move messages, you can add those to the html archive with bin/arch If archives/private/[list-name].mbox/[list-name].mbox contains all the list messages from the beginning, or you can piece together one that does, then you can do bin/arch --wipe to completely initialize and rebuild the html archive. It is a good idea to first check the .mbox file with bin/cleanarch. See 'bin/arch --help' and 'bin/cleanarch --help'. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED]The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman archives and email addresses
It doesn't do a complete job of obscuring email addresses in archived email. 1. Some email clients use the users' email address as the base of the message-id. 2. Mailmain doesn't obscure email addresses in the body, so if this message were archived, then [EMAIL PROTECTED] would appear in the archive and be accessible to so-called harvesters of email addresses. I would like the ability to perform a one-way transformation on _all_ email addresses. I fear that obfuscation techniques such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] and mailman-archival-error at computerdatasafe dot com dot au are becoming well-known enough that writers of the harvesting software will code round it. However, removing email addresses from lines such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: is safe, and as a writer to numerous lists, my intended audience is those subscribed to the list; if archival copies are less complete that's fine by me. If I want someone to write direct to me, I will spell out the email address.

Mailmain doesn't obscure email addresses in the body, so if this message were archived, then [EMAIL PROTECTED] would appear in the archive and be accessible to so-called harvesters of email addresses. So be it. IMHO, if an email address is in the message body, it *should* be archived. It is easy for a user to render their email address relatively unrecognizable to harvesters if they so desire (indeed, this has been a common practice for years). However, removing email addresses from lines such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: is safe, and as a writer to numerous lists, my intended audience is those subscribed to the list; if archival copies are less complete that's fine by me. If I want someone to write direct to me, I will spell out the email address. Yowzer. I'm *very* against outright deletion of addresses. If you want to do this, go ahead and write your own patch for it, but please don't put this in the public release. Many people go to extraordinary lengths to reduce spam; the more mailing-list software does to help the better for all of is. - -1 Chris Hedemark ..
