I know this was posted some time ago on how to clear out all the archive info, I just cannot locate the instructions. Can any one please assist.
It depends on what you want to accomplish. If you really want to irrevocably remove all archived messages for a list, the safest way to do it is
cd mailmans/installed/directory cp /dev/null archives/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox bin/arch --wipe listname
If you want to clear the web archives, but keep the cumulative mbox, just do
cd mailmans/installed/directory bin/arch --wipe listname </dev/null
