Mailman includes pipermail for its archives, which builds them from plain
mbox-format mailboxes. When I built the current BLU server last year, we
also
had our mail archives all over the place, much of it existing only in my
personal archives at home.
As part of the server preparation, I tracked down most of them and
consolidated most of it into a single 7-year archive. A few of my
Jaz cartridges had gone bad, and I found myself missing messages in
two gaps, one spanning two months and the other spanning seven months,
but one of my members was able to fill in most of it.
Where are the new gnhlug lists hosted now? I take it they're not on a
server
controlled by the group?

Some people say, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
I often respond, "When elephants fight, it's the grass
that gets trampled."
