I've been running some lists for the last 3 years or so on Lsoft's
Listserv software. I'm now switching over to sympa. The only problem I
have is that I want to keep the archives of the list that I already have.
I currently have them in MHonarc format, but I can put them back into a
mailbox format.

How do I put the archives into sympa, though? It looks
to me that if I would put the files in $sympa_home/expl/$listname/archives
and followed the digest form closely, that I could just rebuild the
archives using the wwwsympa interface. However, I've tried, and the old
archives don't show up. Any suggestions?
