sigh.

wes, we have between 300 to 400 archives.  i'd prefer not to start dicking
with configs on a per archive basis at this stage if i can help it. (i.e
having to provide a different virtual server for every archive ? unusable
from a end user point of view).

the index.shtml in the distfiles directory looks to be a mistake - it's
specifically for procmail from a cursory glance.  i'm pretty sure the
X gig in distfiles isn't totally for procmail, so the simplest thing might
be to get it deleted.

i appreciate the suggestion though.

regards,


-jason
