Hi Dave, Usually the mailing list software is what imposes the very low limits (10s of kB). The mail software itself has much higher limits. The reason for the mailing list to set limits this low is due to the multiplication factor. Regards, Bye, Erik. http://efficito.com -- Hosted accounting and ERP. Robust and Flexible.

Thank you very much for this. I followed these instructions and was able to create my own mirror. Very well done!

Also, you don't need to create a new repo for this. It works for an existing repo. I just tried with the existing cmucl repo on github the mirror was done successfully. (I did make a mistake the first time, but I'm not sure what the mistake was. Copied the wrong ssh key?)
