And barring that, I also haven't gotten around to deleting 1305 messages, 
dating back from Sept 10 1997.  If I get really industrious, I'll upload 
them to my web page and make them searchable.  Until then, let me know 
which you'd like and I'll try.

I don't know if the archive-service is still running, but you could sent an
e-mail to
. In the body of the mail you have the following
options:

------------------------ cut here -------------------------

This archive server knows the following commands:

get filename ...
ls directory ...
egrep case_insensitive_regular_expression filename ...
maxfiles nnn
version

Aliases for 'get': send, sendme, getme, gimme, retrieve, mail
Aliases for 'ls': dir, directory, list, show
Aliases for 'egrep': search, grep, fgrep, find

Lines starting with a '#' are ignored.
Multiple commands per mail are allowed.
Setting maxfiles to zero will remove the limit (to protect you against
yourself no more than maxfiles files will be returned per request).
Egrep supports most common flags.

Examples:
ls latest
get latest/12
egrep some.word latest/*

---------------------- cut here -------------------

With kind regards,

Erik
