I, too, archive sunspots. It was pretty simple to set up an archive by
adding a user, named "sunspots", to the Internet mailing list. The user
has a .forward file with:
"|sh /u1/sunspots/spotsave"
Spotsave is a script:
ARCHIVE=/u4/spotarch
cat - >/tmp/spots$$
vol=`sed -n -e '/ Sun-Spots Digest, /{' \
-e 's/^\(.*, \)\(.*\)$/\2/p' \
-e q \
-e } \
/tmp/spots$$`
start=`sed -n -e '/^SUN-SPOTS DIGEST/{' \
-e = \
-e q \
-e } \
/tmp/spots$$`
tail +$start /tmp/spots$$ | compress > $ARCHIVE/$vol.Z
rm /tmp/spots$$
