[Mailman-Users] Importing archived msgs into a Mailman list

[John Poltorak]

I have managed to obtain all the msgs as individual files. I'm not  sure of
the mbox format, but hopefully I can create it... Isn't it just a
concatenation of all the individual files as a single file? There's
probably more to it, but hopefully it is doable without too much difficulty.
