2.9 The Archiving Options Category</A>
</H2>
<P>
Mailman comes with a built-in web-based archiver called
<em>Pipermail</em>, although it can be configured to use external,
third party archivers.
<P>
<DL>
<DT><STRONG>archive</STRONG></DT>
<DD>This option tells Mailman whether to archive messages it receives
or not, regardless of whether Pipermail or a third party archiver
is used. Turn this off if you don't want to archive messages.
<P>
Note that senders can control whether their own posts are
archived, on an individual per-message basis. If the posted
message has a <span class="mailheader">X-No-Archive:</span> header (regardless of
value), or a <span class="mailheader">X-Archive:</span> header with a value of
<code>No</code> (case insensitive), then the message will not be
archived, although it will be treated as normal in all other
ways.
<P>
</DD>
<DT><STRONG>archive_private</STRONG></DT>
<DD>Controls whether Pipermail archives are private or public.
Private archives require a valid member address and password, or a
list administrator password in order to access them. This
option has no effect when a third party archiver is used.
<P>
</DD>
<DT><STRONG>archive_volume_frequency</STRONG></DT>
<DD>Controls how Pipermail splits messages in the archive. The most
common option is <em>Monthly</em> meaning a new archive volume is
started every month. Very high volume lists may want a shorter
frequency (e.g. <em>Weekly</em> or <em>Daily</em>) where as lower
volume lists may want a longer frequency (e.g. <em>Yearly</em>).
This option has no effect when a third party archiver is used.
