Category: list administration Group: Mailman 2.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Daily mbox files for list mbox archives Initial Comment: The daily mbox patch changes the way Mailman does its archive-to-mbox archiving, if that is enabled. The standard Mailman system single .mbox file per list used for mbox archiving can, over time, become very unwieldy, presenting problems for disk space management. The mailman daily mbox patch modifies Mailman's behaviour so that a sparse series of daily mbox files is used for archiving rather than a single mbox file. Each archived message is normally appended to a daily mbox file for the UTC date when the message is first archived. For more information, download the patch and check out the file README.dailymbox or visit the URL http://www.openinfo.co.uk/mm/ patches/dailymbox/ Apply the patch from within the Mailman build directory using the command: patch -p1 < path-to-patch-file ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jim Popovitch (jimpop) Date: 2006-05-28 17:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=3142 Working very well on a production system.
