Re: mailing list archives

[Paul Jones <pjones@metalab.unc.edu>]

we need to take a look at this on our end. in theory the cron job need
only be run on metalab. it generates, when it works correctly ;->, html
pages that should reference each other without any additional software. i
agree the sizes of the files don't make sense. we've had a problem with
the broken cron messages before. Donald, can you look at this?
thanks
