[Mailman-Users] importing large (1GB) mbox file, hitting a wall here..

[Andrew White, PhD]

   I think that's totally the issue- I can see some really old messages
   (1996) which very malformed date fields. Am checking on my versions of
   software now- I'm a little limited on this end since I'm using a virtual
   box on bluehost.com, and while I have root access, there are some aspects
   I can't upgrade or change. Am looking now.

     Never mind. The use of the flags= argument in re.sub was introduced in
     Mailman 2.1.22 and requires Python 2.7.

     The exception will occur with Python older than 2.7.x when attempting to
     archive a message with no valid Date: header and no valid
     X-List-Received-Date: header.

     I have updated the FAQs at < [1]https://wiki.list.org/x/4030629> and
     < [2]https://wiki.list.org/x/876> to note this requirement.

     I have also attached a patch to Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py that will
     allow it to work with older Python.
