I am sending the mail to lists. But in Archive It is showing inactive and no mails are there in archives. Kindly help in this regard.
Assuming you have all the components of the Mailman Suite installed, you need to configure the archiver in mailman.cfg and enable it in the list's configuration in Settings/Archiving.
I don't understand what you mean by "showing inactive", because "inactive" is not a word used in the configuration. If you mean the appropriate boxes are not checked in Settings/Archiving, then check those boxes and save the configuration. Messages received from then on should be added to the archives. You should not have to restart Mailman.
I don't know offhand how to add the missing messages to the archives. I suggest you get copies and save them in mbox format, one per list. It may be possible to use the archive migration utility to add them but you have to be a little careful about that. I'm not sure how much threading depends on the order in which messages are added.
