How can I initialize sympa archive with message from my previous list server ?
You can install any old messages into wwsympa archive if you have a bundle of smtp format messages, ie the message headers and body in ascii file. This can be done using for example eudora folder, majordomo archives as message sources
The first step is to store all messages in a directory witch name is :
<arc_path>/<listadresse>/arctxt/<n>
where
- <arc_path> is the value of arc_path wwsympa parameter
- listadresse is the qualified email adresse of the list
- yyyy is the year number
- mm the mounth number
- n is the serial number (each message stored in a file named 1,2, ...)
The second step is to use sympa admin in the web interface and rebuilt this archive. archived.pl deamon will produce all neccessary html file.
- from sympa to wwsympa.If you are doing this using a RFC934 digest used sympa for email mode archives, you can perform the first step running arc2webarc.pl which is part of sympa distribution.
- it's probably easy to adapt arc2webarc.pl
