Mailman users --
I am setting up a new mailman3 installation, and this is my first experience with the suite. All of the software is up and running, but I cannot tell if hyperkitty is actually running.
When I look at my test mailing list, two archive options are available, hyperkitty and "prototype", and both are enabled. I can see that my email is being archived, but I think "prototype" is what is doing the archiving. I see that a test message will end up in /opt/mailman/mm/var/archives/prototype/<LISTNAME>@<LISTDOMAIN.org>/new/164.... and nowhere else. This suggests that "prototype" is archiving, but hyperkitty is not.
So, this opens up a raft of questions on hyperkitty:
- How do I tell if hyperkitty is actually running?
- Does hyperkitty have a web-UI for admins or users? How would I access it?
- I can not find any documentation on hyperkitty, other than installation instructions and change logs. Does documentation exist?
- How do I set policies on how long archives are kept?
- Assuming I want to back up my archives, what do I need to back up?
Thanks for your help!
