NAME
mmarch - Rebuild a Mailman list's archive.
SYNOPSIS
mmarch listname [options] <listname> [<mbox>]
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to rebuild the archives for a mailing list. You may
want to do this if you edit some messages in an archive, or remove some
messages from an archive.
-h, --help
Print this error message and exit.
-q, --quiet
Make the archiver output less verbose.
--wipe First wipe out the original archive before regenerating. You
usually want to specify this argument unless you're generating
the archive in chunks.
-s N, --start=N
Start indexing at article N, where article 0 is the first in the
mbox. Defaults to 0.
-e M, --end=M
End indexing at article M. This script is not very efficient
with respect to memory management, and for large archives, it
may not be possible to index the mbox entirely. For that
reason, you can specify the start and end article numbers.
mbox is the path to a list's complete mbox archive. Usually this will
be some path in the archives/private directory. For example:
% mmarch mylist archives/private/mylist.mbox/mylist.mbox
mbox is optional. If it is missing, it is calculated.
