We just had a post on mozilla-webtools pointing out that the archives link on the mailman listinfo pages for the mailing lists goes to the internal archives in Mailman which were disabled shortly after we set it up because the archiving was all done by the news server. We need to find a way to modify the archives links to point at the news archive instead on the affected lists.
Certainly in my version of mailman (2.1.4) there is an option on the list admin page to "Edit the Public HTML Pages". On the next screen, there is an option labelled "General list information page" where you can edit the archive link. You would need to do this individually for each list, though.
Cool, that was easy. :) mozilla-webtools is fixed. I actually don't have admin access to any other public lists though.
I have admin access for all of MailMan now. I can take care of this eventually.

Dave: is this still worth doing, considering our upcoming server change? Gerv
(In reply to comment #4) > Dave: is this still worth doing, considering our upcoming server change? Yes and no. :) We're going to have to create all of these pages for all of the new mailing lists anyway as we set them up on the new server. Let's just set them up right while we're at it. :)

Mailman on lists.mozilla.org has been hacked to supply a URL to Google Groups for the <MM-Archive-URL> replacement tag in the templates for lists that are gatewayed to a newsgroup.
