We have a list with a very large archive, over 137,000 messages in a month.
It catches system alerts. This might just be a bad idea. Maybe we should
archive by day. But it's been all right for many months up to now.
I'm looking for ideas on how to solve a problem with the archives.
Yesterday the archive got into a weird state that I could not break by a
shutdown and fresh start. For each incoming message, it rewrites all of the
old messages with one extra newline. This useless activity takes quite a
while and has caused mail to accumulate in the in/ directory.
Inspection of a sample message in a backup from about 24 hours ago shows
hundreds of newlines added to the message in that time. The newlines are
always added at the same place, between this:---
Hi dear, how are you doing, I have a question?can anybody help me install
mailman and make it run? I like to get in touch with you if so so that
maybe ca help me installl it in my server because I have installed via
webmin once but didn`t get it to run.
