I only observed it, never debugged it, but I think a common case is if
mailing lists posts are removed (e.g. because they are spam) and then
the archive is re-created.

Unfortunately true.

o_O That's news to me... Why/how does this happen? This sounds like a
serious bug to me, the URLs should really, really be stable to be of
any use.

That hint doesn't really help to unbreak the Haskell wiki, the various
trac instances, my mailbox, etc. :-(

happens with mailman/pipermail occasionally. It is more reliable to link
to message ids, e.g. via gmame:
http://mid.gmane.org/4D779F63.9050506%40irit.fr (random example from my browser 
history)

lists.debian.org also allows links with message ids:
http://lists.debian.org/20120408083121.GB9680@flashgordon (another random 
example)
but I don’t know if this is an easy to enable standard mailman feature.

Greetings,
Joachim

Thank you! This would be really really great!

Henning,

Thanks for the report. I'm currently investigating this, and think it
should be possible to keep all of the old URLs intact.

Unfortunately I cannot amend emails that I have sent.

Could we not just have kept the domain and set a CNAME entry to the new one?

Those at least are recoverable, just replace hpaste.org with
lpaste.net(content is still there). But still.

Yes, I also found that links from Google to archives don't work any 
more.

(Also fact that hpaste just went away, invalidating all my links to 
hpastes, is similarly bad.)

Thanks for bringing this up. There's been lots of flux in the servers 
lately due to migrations. I'll try to make sure this gets looked into.
