hi. i recently upgraded my mailing list server from debian etch to lenny, which included an upgrade from mailman 2.1.9 to 2.1.11; due to some local hackery this somewhat broke my mailing list archives (the hackery only makes monthly archives available as e.g. 2009-03 rather than 2009-March o

hi all. after moving a mailinglist from one domain to another, i was wondering how i can keep the old List-ID (according to RFC2919 the List-ID (or the address-part therein) should not change, even if the list-address changes) i have found an open bug-report regarding this: https://bugs.launc
