I am moving a list that has been in operation several years, with monthly archives, from Listproc 6.0c  to Listserv.  I would like to move the archive files too.

It was suggested that I could repost the messages to the new list before adding subscribers, which would be a lot of work, especially since each message would have to be cut from the Listproc archive.

It looks as if I might use PUT <list> LOGnnnn to transfer an entire archive file, as long as I could get the format exactly right.  Reformatting would be easier for me to automate than cutting and resending thousands of messages.

1) is the PUT...LOGnnnn startegy possible for transferring archives?

2) if so, are there critical details.  Or (better yet)  does anyone have a script for automating the job?

3) other suggestions?

Thanks,

Jim
