Archives

This section is related to the management of archive mails from the mailing list. You can set up a local web server to view the archives from the mailing list. This section contains the following options.

Keep Archives

This option allows you to set whether or not new posts are added to archives. If No is selected, new posts in the list will not be placed in the archives.

Delete Old Archives?

If Yes, archives which are older than a specified Maximum Age are removed automatically. The Maximum Age can be set in the next option. If No, no part of the archive will be expired or removed. This option will take effect only if you specify a Maximum Age of Archives to Retain.

Maximum Age of Archives to Retain

You may specify the maximum age of
archives in months. Archives are checked once in a month, and archives older than this limit are removed. This limit is enforced only if you have selected Yes in the Delete Old Archives? option above.

Virtual Host for Displaying Archives

A virtual host is necessary to display the mailing list archives through a web server. To enable accessing archives through the web server, select a Local Virtual Host, and click Update Settings. You will need to create at least one virtual host before you can use this section. Virtual hosts can be created in the Virtual Host Management module accessible from the main index page in the WebTool. After setting up the local web server for displaying the archives, you can select how often to update the web interface for the archives.

How Ofter to Update the Archives

This option will be available only after you have selected a virtual host and set up the webserver. You may specify how often the web page should be updated to reflect changes in the archives.

To remove a virtual host, you may use the Clear Virtual Host button on the bottom right of the screen.
