The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Miles Fidelman <address@concealed>]

Hi Folks,

I just migrated a list from Yahoo Groups to Sympa.  Went fairly smoothly 
- though it was sort of a pain having to manually set each user's 
reception mode for lack of an easy import mechanism.

Anyway... the one thing that really hasn't worked completely is 
migrating the archives.

The steps:
- used yahoo2mbox.pl (wonderful script!) to suck the archives out of 
yahoo into an mbox file
- used mbox2sympa.pl to generate log files from the mbox file
- used arc2webarc.pl to burst the log files, create the monthly archive 
directories, and populate the arctxt subdirectories
- went into the wwsympa admin page and ran "rebuild archives" for the list

This seems to have created all the html files and indices, and such, 
BUT.....

A goodly number of the resulting archive pages have empty bodies.  The 
headers are there, and there are bodies in the source message files, but 
mhonarc seems to have created html pages with no message body.

Any thoughts, suggestions, etc.?

Thanks very much,

Miles Fidelman
