Derek, I want to double check that I understand exactly what you want to do here. From the email below I am assuming you want to take an existing internal email alias (dtrace-interest) and move all of it''s messages onto the existing opensolaris dtrace mailing list. Is that correct? or do you only want to move the archives of the dtrace-interest list onto opensolaris, but keep it separate from the current dtrace list? -- Allen Derek Cicero wrote:> Allen, > > We want to add the archives from a previous mailing list to the > opensolaris site.
