Jeff was running the archive and he was having problems with the scripts
he was using. They were eating up to much cpu. I have setup a new
archive at mail-archive.com.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]/

Now they block email harvester and other emails robots and the remove
the emails from the message header but I noticed that they missed some
emails inside the message body. I would suggest that as long as people
refrain from quoted senders email addresses with their replies that this
won't be an issue.

Mail-archive is run on Monharc and is owned by valinux so it is free and
based on open source software.

If you feel that email stripping isn't quite good enough, there's always
yahoogroups with their ads.
