FAQ
On some mailman lists there is a "total archive" that can be downloaded,
not just the montly files. How do I get that on my list?

Some people are like slinkeys. No socially redeeming qualities, but they
bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

    PUBLIC_MBOX = Yes

    In mm_cfg.py will make the link appear on index pages and will cause a
    symlink to the private .mbox to be created in the public directory the
    next time the list/archive is updated.

    With or without the hyperlink and/or symlink, you can always access the
    cumulative mailbox via a URL like
    <http://www.example.com/mailman/private/listname.mbox/listname.mbox>,
    but this requires authorization as a list member or admin even if the
    archive is public, and may require reentry of the URL after
    authorization (bug 1080943).

    What if the archives are private?
