Subject: Re: Can archives be saved when a list is deleted?

On an IBM Mainframe and on Linux, the message archives are separate text files that can be copied off for safe keeping before a list is deleted. As the System Administrator, I always copy off the archives to send to the list owner. Even burning them to CD for more permanent storage.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [LSTSRV-L] Can archives be saved when a list is deleted?

We have a list owner that is wondering if the list can be deleted but the archives be saved. Does anyone know if this is possible or have experience with doing this?

Thanks!
