5.1. How do I import an archive into a new mailing list?

If your archive is in mbox format copy it to 

   archives/private/<list>.mbox/<list>.mbox  (where <list> is your list name)

then run 

    bin/arch <list> archives/private/<list>.mbox/<list>.mbox

If it's not in mbox format then you need to figure out how to convert it from whatever form it's in to mbox.

Note, that public archive files are just a softlink to 

  archives/private/<list>.mbox/<list>.mbox

so you don't have to do the same job twice. Converted from the Mailman FAQ Wizard

This is one of many Frequently Asked Questions.
