I recently installed hypermail and tried to get it to create an archive. Unfortunatly it didn't work out too well.
All I get is:
spam_at_www:~ > /usr/local/bin/hypermail -p /home/spam/spam.conf Creating directory "archive", mode 755. Loading mailbox...
Afterwards it just sits there and does nothing :(
This is the config file I created, did I miss something?
Thanks.
Michael
