I have the following directories under /opt/majordomo:
lists for all files containing members of lists
digests where all the digests are saved and
archives where archiving is done.
In the lists directory, are listname, listname-digest, listname.config,
listname-digest.config, and the .intro, .info files for each list.
In the digests directory (named with an 's' on the end so as not to be
confused with the digest perl script also in that directory), are
directories named listname-digest which contain the 001 002 003 ... files
which contain the digests.
In the archives directory are directories named listname.archive and
listname-digest.archive. Because of a configuration issue on my server,
I've created a symbolic link to each listname.archive directory just called
listname. I do that so the email retrieval mechanism works for sending
index and get commands. It failed before I created the symbolic links.
My majordomo.cf file reflects these directories like this, in their
various portions:
$listdir = "$homedir/lists"; <- on line 24
$digest_work_dir = "/opt/majordomo-1.94.5/digests"; <- on line 33
$filedir = "/opt/majordomo-1.94.5/archives"; <- on line 133
$filedir_suffix = ".archive"; <- on line 134
I hope this answers your question adequately.
