[Mailman-Users] Adding old (majordomo) postings to a Mailman archive

2008-02-29 Thread Visvanath Ratnaweera
Hi all Before changing to Mailman our list ran on majordomo. I still have those postings, in my IMAP mailbox, as a seperate directory. My question is, how can I add those postings to the running list? Chronological overlap is minimal. Only for the final month there are postings on both sides.
