Are mailing lists archived on SCN?

0

SCN’s system automatically maintains archives of all mailing lists. These archive files aren’t available to the general public, but may be available to a list’s current subscribers. A subscriber to a list (say, the blah@scn.org mailing list) can request a listing of its archive files by sending an “index blah” command to majordomo. The subscriber can then request a specific archive file (say, the October, 1998 message archives) by sending a “get blah blah.9810” command to majordomo. Some lists might also maintain public archives that anyone can read. Keep in mind that individual subscribers to a list might keep personal archives of the discussions.
