create an archive of a list
I would like to archive a James mailing list.
I 've thought of several ideas;
- create a user account that subscribes to the list and add a cron job
that automatically gets the mails into an mbox format
- redirect the content to a News Server (also enabled in james) so that
one can use an NNTP reader to access the history and even comment on it.
Did anybody do something similar? Do I need to write a mailet?
I would also like to hear advices from people who have been using james
longer than me :)
Cheers,
Jerome

Ok thanks. Didn't see the wiki link.
I was looking under the Documentation and the wiki link is further up on
the page.

answer was in config.xml...
<!-- Default setting: file based repository - enter path ( use

Try putting file:/// instead of file:// in the repository location spec. for absolute path cf relative.

Re: create an archive of a list - can't make it work
Posted by "Jerome Lacoste @ BBC" <la...@altern.org>.
finally found out why it wasn't working. James was considering that
/usr/local/src/james-2.1.2/apps/james was the root of the file system.
Thus /var/mail/list-name was in fact
/usr/local/src/james-2.1.2/apps/james/var/mail/list-name
A little bit confusing to me, and not very nice when it comes to upgrade
james.
It doesn't seem like I made a configuration error to end up in that state.
I can probably get around this by using links that points back to the
real root.

Hmm, I tried exactly the same today and it *did* work, but I used jdbc and a different matcher.

I am trying to set up this archive, but I am apparently failing to do so.
I have tried many things, and I am now stuck.
Here's my full log.:
1- Added the following block at the beginning of the transport protocol.
<!-- create an archive of all mails sent to mylist -->
<mailet match="RecipientIs=mylist@mydomain"
class="ToRepository">
<repositoryPath>file://var/mail/mylist/</repositoryPath>
<passThrough> true </passThrough>
</mailet>
restarted james & sent a message to mylist@mydomain list:
nothing happened. In the logs, I see that the mailet seems to be
correctly initialized:
mailstore-2003-04-01-17-52.log:01/04/03 17:52:06 INFO mailstore: added
repository: file://var/mail/mylist/MAIL->org.
apache.james.mailrepository.AvalonMailRepository
mailstore-2003-04-01-18-06.log:01/04/03 18:06:33 INFO mailstore: added
repository: file://var/mail/mylist/MAIL->org.
apache.james.mailrepository.AvalonMailRepository
but nothing else (e.g. nothing in mailet log saying that the mail was
processed).
2- Thinking that the program doesn't manage to create /var/mail/mylist,
I tried to manualy create /var/mail/mylist as root
drwxr-sr-x 2 root mail 4096 Apr 1 18:05 mylist/
- restarted james
- sent a message to mylist@mydomain list:
nothing happened still.
So I turned logging to DEBUG level for the smtpserver mailet and the
mailstore categories, but I couldn't find anything suspicious.
3- moved the archive mailet into root processor, in the middle of the
ones that creates the list:
<!-- mylist list -->
<mailet match="CommandForListserv=mylist@mydomain"
class="AvalonListservManager">
<repositoryName>mylist</repositoryName>
</mailet>
<!-- create an archive of all mails sent to mylist -->
<mailet match="RecipientIs=mylist@mydomain"
class="ToRepository">
<repositoryPath>file://var/mail/mylist/</repositoryPath>
<passThrough> true </passThrough>
</mailet>
<mailet match="RecipientIs=mylist@mydomain"
class="AvalonListserv">
<membersonly>true</membersonly>
<attachmentsallowed>true</attachmentsallowed>
<replytolist>true</replytolist>
<repositoryName>mylist</repositoryName>

restarted james & sent mail to list
This had a consequence as the following appeared in the logs:
mailet-2003-04-01-18-26.log:01/04/03 18:26:32 INFO James.Mailet:
ToRepository: Storing mail Mail1049214391804-1 in file
://var/mail/mylist/
mailet-2003-04-01-18-28.log:01/04/03 18:28:39 INFO James.Mailet:
ToRepository: Storing mail Mail1049214518879-1 in file
://var/mail/mylist/
as if something was finally happening. But no files shows in the
/var/mail/mylist/
4. So I deleted the directory I had manually created (/var/mail/mylist)
and restarted james and sent another mail. Same thing.
5- I then tried to change the output path to something like
/opt/mail/mylist/ then /opt/mail/mylist (without the trailing /) where
/opt/mail/ is a directory with full permissions for everyone. Still no luck.
Logs seems OK though:
mailet-2003-04-01-18-49.log:01/04/03 18:50:27 INFO James.Mailet:
ToRepository: Storing mail Mail1049215826671-1 in file
://opt/mail/mylist/
mailet-2003-04-01-18-51.log:01/04/03 18:51:45 INFO James.Mailet:
ToRepository: Storing mail Mail1049215902469-1 in file
://opt/mail/mylist
but still not archived...
It seems like this mailet silently fails at some point. The DEBUG didn't
enable much in the mailet log file as only INFO message appeared there.
I am a little bit stuck... Idea anyone?
And BTW why is it worse to have the mailet in the transport processor,
where nothing happens at all, than in the root transport?
Cheers,
Jerome

RE: create an archive of a list

As Nicola pointed out on the Wiki in response to someone else, you can do
this by setting up something like:
<mailet match="RecipientIs=list-name@domain.tld"
class="ToRepository">
<repositoryPath>file://var/mail/list-name/</repositoryPath>
<passThrough> true </passThrough>
</mailet>
To quote a well-known American advertisement: "It's in there!" :-)
If you want it in some other format, you'll have to convert for now. James
v3 should support other message storage formats.
