Somewhat more generic using debian-ized filelocations:


from mm_cfg.py:

PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = "/etc/mhonarc/filter %(listname)s"
PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = "/etc/mhonarc/filter %(listname)s"


------------- /etc/mhonarc/filter ------------------
#!/bin/sh

umask 022
listname=$1
outdir=/var/lib/mhonarc/$listname
rcfile=/etc/mhonarc/$listname/rc

if [ ! -e "$rcfile" ]; then 
	rcfile=/etc/mhonarc/rc-default
fi	
if [ ! -d "$outdir" ]; then 
	mkdir -p $outdir
fi

/usr/bin/mhonarc -add -rcfile $rcfile -outdir $outdir
chmod -R go+rX $outdir
------------------------------------------------------

Because my clients like to integrate the archive into their website,
/etc/mhonarc/rc-default contains some simple sane standard settings.
These can easily be overridden per list by setting up the file
/etc/mhonarc/$listname/rc
