If you're modifying them in the /archives directory then you're doing
it in the wrong place.  These files originally reside in LISTSERV's
/main directory.  Every midnight LISTSERV reads the files from the
/main directory and rebuilds all the WWW files in the /archives
directory.

What you need to do is either use the web interface to modify your
templates, which lets LISTSERV do all the file creation/editing and
puts them in the correct place, or else move your hand-modified
templates into the /main directory.  Also, the file you need to
modify for TRAILER.HTML is default.mailtpl; search for the heading
>>> $WWW_ARCHIVE_TRAILER.

I'd suggest looking at the Site Manager's Manual, chapter 9.7.
