Check archive settings in ListManager Pro
If you are using ListManager with the Pro feature set, please note: ListManager now has a list setting which controls how long mailings are saved. For upgraded servers, this setting defaults to five days, meaning delivery, clickthrough and other reporting data will be deleted after five days. To increase this setting and keep your data longer:
1. Upgrade ListManager.
2. Run ListManager.
3. Log in as a list administrator.
4. In the left Navigation bar, click Utilities: List Settings: Automatic Maintenance: Purging Archives.
5. Set Keep mailing and clickthrough data for how many days to the length of time you'd like to view delivery and clickthrough data (recommended: 30).
6. Click Save.
7. Repeat for all lists.
Archives and Message Searching Availability
Message threading and searchable archives will not be available immediately after upgrading from versions 5.0 and earlier. ListManager 7.0 and later has new methods of threading and indexing archives so they are searchable.
After upgrading, ListManager will attempt to determine whether a message is a response to a previous message
in that same list or whether it is starting a new 'thread' of discussion. This threading will be shown
in the ListManager web interface.
ListManager also has a new improved method for full-text archive searching. The database design has
been changed to make searching faster and more efficient, while also using less disk space. Additionally,
the new web interface will allow new options for message searching include 'not equal' words, i.e., exclude
messages that contain a set of words.
The database will be altered during the dbupgrade process to enable these features, and then as ListManager runs, the message-threading and full-text archives will be built. This means that any searches of the full-text archive may not find any data when ListManager is started for the first time. ListManager will be busily rebuilding the full-text archive in the background, and once it has completed it will remain up-to-date, since every message is archived when it is received.
