If you go to <http://rmp.opusis.com/pipermail/cameramakers/> you can
download the entire archive (7 MBytes) or by month (looks like the biggest
size is about 404 Kbytes).  These are NOT raw html, but rather plain
mailbox files (Header delimited ASCII).  That allows you to drop them into
your mail program as if you just received all of the messages.  I don't
have any of these available in compressed form.

As for searching for past info, there are several other options.  One is
the search engine I have setup specifically for the site at
<http://rmp.opusis.com/htdig/search.html>.  The entire archive up till
probably last Friday (whenever the indexer was last run) is currently
searchable.  If you don't like that, I can tell you that the robots from
several of the big search engines such as google, yahoo, and altavista
often crawl the site.  That might also be a solution.
