This is very wrong. There should be one archives/private/list.mbox
directory for each list and that directory should contain one
list.mbox file which is a mailbox contianing all posts archived for
the list. I.e., in the case of the 'mailman' list, an
archives/private/mailman.mbox directory containing an
archives/private/mailman.mbox/mailman.mbox file.

What does 'ls -lR /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/mailman.mbox' show
on the old and new servers? What about other lists?
