Hello hypermailers, Hi Andreas,
this is an answer to your question from Sep the 2nd.

| I downloaded the actal hypermail release. It works fine, I was also able
| to generate a date structured archive with 'msg2archive'. So far so
| good... But I miss the index pages for this archive and a opportunity to
| generate them automatically.

There is an experimental contribution written by me, which tackles this problem.

The patch is tested against 2b28, but it should be easy to adapt. It makes hypermail write little XML files.

A python script can assemble them to monthly archives index pages. Check the following website to see it in action:

        http://www.ffii.org/archive/mails/swpat/

You can get it from CVS, but it was left out of the 2b30 tarball release for reasons I do not know.
Check:
http://cvs.hypermail.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/hypermail/contrib/hoaf-28/

Regards,

        Bernhard
