[Mailman-Users] private archiving problems

[Barry A. Warsaw]

Just remember that archives are only private because they go through a
cgi script that does the authorization.  Public archives are vended
directly by the Web server.  The latter is so that the most common
case is fast.  However without a lot of file system reorganization on
the switch b/w private and public archiving, when you access a private
archive, you are invoking a cgi.
