Request to Archive an Existing Mailing List


Please fill out this form to request archiving for an existing mailing list. Your request will be sent to the Fermilab postmaster for processing.

Requests for archiving must be done by a list owner.

Archiving Recommendations

Projects Lists that discuss a project can find archival useful to search for decisions made, etc.
Admin Lists that deal with administration of computer systems. The web interface makes it very easy to search archives for relevant information.

Not Recommended for Archiving
Automated lists Any list that is updated by an automated mailer - cron/batch/etc.
Announcements Lists where the main purpose is to send notification to many users, such as departmental lists, user organizations, etc.


All requests for archiving are subject to review.

       Primary owner The e-mail address of the primary owner of the list.
       List Name What list do you want archived?
Archive Rotation Weekly - A new archive will be created weekly

Yearly - A new archive will be created yearly

Archive Privacy Public - Anyone can read the archive
