[Mailman-Users] Mail missing from archives. [Mailman-Users]

[David Woodhouse]

I'm trying to move couple of old majordomo lists over to Mailman, and I'd
like to copy across the archives too.

The lists I'm trying to convert are (now) 
	http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mtd
and	http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mtd-cvs


Unfortunately, I cannot persuade Mailman to produce archives for the old 
messages correctly - many of the original mails are missing from the 
archive produced.

I have a copy of the archives of the original list in mbox format. I have 
tried piping each mail individually through 'post linux-mtd' with formail, 
and I've tried just dumping the mbox file in 
$prefix/archives/private/linux-mtd.mbox/linux-mtd.mbox and running 
'arch linux-mtd'

Whatever I do, only some of the mails appear in the archive. See
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/ - the 'full raw archive' 
contains all the mail it's supposed to, but the individual months' archives 
are extremely sparse.

The host is a Red Hat 7.1 box, with the included version of Mailman - 
'mailman-2.0.1-2'. Python '1.5.2-30' is installed.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug in in the archival code?
