I have tried this:

PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = 'cat - > /tmp/archive.%(listname)s ; cat - >
/home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s/archive.%(listname)s'
PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = 'cat - > /tmp/archive.%(listname)s ; cat - >
/home/mailman/archives/private/%(listname)s/archive.%(listname)s'

and NOTHING has been written, even in /tmp !!

I am using Mailman 2.0 beta.

Any other idea is welcome.

Thanks,	me
