"bug" in pipermail / 2.0.8
Okay, I had a problem with a list. I've got HTML archives of the list, generated by Mailman, going back to 1999. However, I've only got .mbox archives of the list going back a few months.
I deleted the Janurary 2002 files from the archives/private/rescue/database/ directory, went to ~mailman/bin/, and re-ran "arch rescue". This fixed the "corrupt database" problem. Almost.
It then regenerated the archives, fixed the problem - and forgot about everything it had before June 2001! Even though there are files in database/ all the way back to '99.
The HTML files are still there, but http://www.sunhelp.org/pipermail/rescue/ doesent list them.
Any way to fix this, short of hand-editing the index.html?

I was able to copy an old index.html file from a tar backup I made of the entire rescue/ directory before I ran arch; however, anytime a new post comes in, the index.html generated ONLY has the stuff from the rescue.mbox in it.

Nevermind; I just recombined all the .txt files to create the .mbox dating back to day one, then am re-running arch. Call me a dork. 8-)
