Mailman archive is not private.. Why?

[anton_latvia]

One of our customers with large amount of mailing lists has discovered, that private messages from their mailing lists are found on google. as a quick solution I have placed simple .htaccess file

Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all

to every his mailman archive folder (under /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private/). This blocks access. But when client will create new mailing list, those archives might not be protected. Am I missing some configuration in mailman? Is it possible to block access in a different way?

Regards,
Anton.

I think you are, you might want to go over your settings a bit closer. For example:

Is archive file source for public or private archival?

Advertise this list when people ask what lists are on this machine?
