NAME

       mmarch - Rebuild a Mailman mailing list's archive.

SYNOPSIS

       mmarch [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.
