Only actually I haven't - I sent Padraic's copy to the list by
mistake, and the server sensibly rejected it. I'll send it off again
tomorrow - have to sleep now - but first I should mention the
specifics of the file. It takes some time to upload, and I don't want
to do that if it won't be of use to people.
Anyway, it's a tar archive of monthly mbox files with bzip2
compression. This should be fairly standard for a Unix system - if
you're running something else, it should be possible to get a copy of
GNU tar or something similar, and if your mail client can't read mbox
files you should at least be able to read them as text (although the
headers will get in the way to some degree). It's about 5MB
compressed, 20MB uncompressed, and runs from Jan'93 to Dec'96,
although several months of 1996 are missing.
