[Mailman-Users] Mailman & MHonArc - please HELP

We're using Mailman v-1.1 and are trying to get MHonArc v-2.4.4 to
work -- this is on a Debian system (2.2.19pre17 #1 SMP).

Here are the entries in our /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py file
(these are the only changes we made for mhonarc BTW)

ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX = 1

PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER  = '(/usr/bin/mhonarc
  -msgsep "^From .*\d:\d+:\d+.*"
  -addressmodifycode "s/\./ /g; s/\@/  /g"
  -nomailto -add
  /archives/private/%(listname)s.mbox/%(listname)s.mbox
  -outdir /www/htdocs/%(listname)s >> /tmp/out_external_archiver)'

PRIVATE_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = '(/usr/bin/mhonarc
  -msgsep "^From .*\d:\d+:\d+.*"
  -addressmodifycode "s/\./ /g; s/\@/  /g"
  -nomailto -add
  /archives/private/%(listname)s.mbox/%(listname)s.mbox
  -outdir /www/htdocs/%(listname)s >> /tmp/out_external_archiver)'

Can someone PLEASE tell us why this is not working ???

Are the "%(listname)s" correct ?
We don't even get the /tmp/out_external_archiver file ? why ?

What are we doing wrong ? or better yet, what do we need to do to
get this working ?  MHonArc works great if we invoke it by hand, so
why isn't Mailman triggering its execution (we're running a cron job
now, but would really like to get this working properly) ?

Is this a bug in Mailman ?

Thanks in advance for your help.
