Thanks. but i'd like to be able to migrate the files to another
location/folder for archive access and while doing the migration/copy i
do not want to lose any incoming mails that's being converted by
hypermail.
ie. copy hypermail webpages to archive directory. while copying a new
mail comes in and will be put into the webpage. after copying into
archive, the webpages are deleted so that the hypermail webpage will
only show the new mails. but the mail that came in during the copying
process may not have been copied into the archive and yet at the same
time it's deleted. this is my concern. is it a reason to worry?
thanks!
