Could you not also add the new list to the old list’s archives via an access-list e.g.



Notebook=Yes,[path-to-old-list-archives],[interval],Private,(newlist)



If you lock the old list so no new subscribers or posts are added, you should have your old archives available to the new list for searching as you desire.

Yes, Pete, the SEARCH function is marvelous and we use it extensively.

But administratively I will have to close the list over the next 2 years.

I’m just trying to map a migration plan for their archives.



SUBSCRIPTION= CLOSED

OWNER= ???

SEND= ???



DEL listname *@*  ???



Update MAILTPL as appropriate



Depending upon, current access to those NOTEBOOKs, you may want to make public (or not).
