The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Olivier Salaün <address@concealed>]

You're right : the 'index' file (that contains the next file name to be 
used) is created by the mail2arc() subroutine whereas rebuild() does not 
include this code. Therefore imported archives or old archives (because 
rebuild() used to remove index files by mistake) may end up with an 
empty 'index' file.

We'v' fixed the archived::rebuild() subroutine ; here is the patch :
