Normally it is $prefix/archives/private/.mbox/.mbox

It will.

Visit the FAQ wizard

and search for mhonarc.

There are a couple of ways you can do this:

  - http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.004.htp
  - http://www.openinfo.co.uk/mm/index.html

I use Richard Barnett / OpenInfo's patches; they are easy to install
provided you follow the instructions and work perfectly.

Mailman includes a built-in web archive system called Pipermail. 
Depending on precisely what you need, this may provide all the 
functionality you require, without needing an external third-party 
archiving solution.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman with MHonArc

[Elvis Fernandes]

All,
 Thanks for all yur help!
One more question:
I want to delete off a few old mailing lists.
I read the instructions at:
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.031.htp
 On checking, I did not the variable OWNERS_CAN_DELETE_THEIR_OWN_LISTS in 
the /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py file.
 Is there a simple way to delete off the old mail lists. I not not need to 
archive any data from these old lists.
 Thanks
Elvis

Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman with MHonArc

To me, the problem with Pipermail is not what it does, but what it doesn't 
do.

Pipermail doesn't allow you to reverse the order of the postings, so readers 
have to scroll to the bottom of what is, in many cases, a large archive, 
doesn't show the name of the person posting, and doesn't date or date sort 
the entries. 

I too am looking at MhonArc as a possible solution, to work in tandem with 
Mailman, but am not proficient enough to install or configure. I'd like to 
hire someone for the task, if that is possible?
