I have not tested it personally, but IIRC some people have said in the past
that only fairly recent messages are available there, all that is left of
older messages are the headers.

I do. But that should be fairly objective -- unless you want to consider
attacks on people to be statements of fact instead of misbehaviour.

Example #1: accusation (without providing proof) of anti-Semitism. Statement
of fact, or a case of misbehaviour?

Example #2: The statement "You live in a paranoid fantasy world". Statement
of fact, or a case of misbehaviour?

Example #3 (from days long gone): "You are an arrogant little twit".
Statement of fact, or insulting statement?
