Re: How to set the starting MSGNUM from 0 to arbitrary number

Hi Michael,

The messages might start from ms00597.html with the "-add" option, however
the index.html was not modified automatically. The index.html still has
msg00000.html and msg00001.html.

When the following command was run, there was a error message.
inet{server}%: /usr/local/depot/MHonArc2.3.0beta/bin/mhonarc -rcfile
/testing/listproc-8.2/MailingLists/EDInfo/src/EDInfo.config -add -outdir

Any further suggestions?

Thanks.
