Annotation of hypermess/hypermail/KNOWN_BUGS, revision 1.1.1.1
1.1 kahan 1: Attachment files:
2: =================
3: When overwriting an existing archive the attachment files are not overwritten
4: but are created anew. This leaves files that are not linked into anything in
5: the directory taking up space.
6:
7: Converting existing hypermail archives to use a different HTML file suffix:
8: ===========================================================================
9: If you are going to change the filename suffix used from the default ".html"
10: to something else, you must deal with the existing files first. Otherwise,
11: hypermail does not know they are there and starts numbering files from the
12: begining.
13:
14: This means that you need to either start out fresh, regenerate the archive
15: from an existing mailbox or convert all existing files and the links within
16: the existing archive files to use the proper extension.
17:
18: File Locking On NFS Mounted Directories:
19: ========================================
20: File locking doesn't work all that well over NFS. For that reason you are
21: encouraged to run Hypermail on the same system that the disk is on. This
22: is due to possible timing issues within NFS. Hypermail based network locking
23: is not expected to work at this time.
24:
25: Message Dates:
26: ==============
27: Dates on messages prior to 1970 are not processed correctly.
