[Mailman-Developers] archiving size issue

[Fil]

To continue this thread I decided to start splitting the big listname.mbox
files into something like
        archives/private/listname.mbox/listname-2006-06.mbox

This will enable compression of the older mboxes, and proper archival
without copying the whole 5Gb of archive each night.

The patch would be, in Archiver.py:


+import time

-                            self.internal_name() + '.mbox')
+                            self.internal_name() + time.strftime('-%Y-%m') + '.mbox')


Do you think there can be some unintended consequence? I don't allow
downloading of the raw .mbox file.
