check out the top three posters (at that time) - ken steele, rachael and uncle bill. I can find my posts as early as 1997 in the google archive.
you could read the posts to usenet group bit.listserv.edi-l from any usenet server with a client (such as agent) or have them sent to your email. there was another flavor of edi-l that was hosted on a private mailing list server. it looks as if in september or october 1998 the server itself started to have issues and in august 2000 we did a conversion to yahoo. you may also remember this: "You are viewing the bit.listserv.edi-l newsgroup; you're missing most of the EDI-L traffic this way because of a broken gateway, and most, if not all, subscribers to EDI-L will never see any messages you post here. If you subscribe to the mailing list instead, you're guaranteed to see everything.

Does anyone know when the original edi-l list first started? I joined in 1994, and the link http://groups.google.com/group/bit.listserv.edi-l/about seems to indicate a start at the beginning of 1992.
