Hi Albert,
Let me repeat and agree with your statement. The essential contribution of mail-archive.com "is the concept of being able to easily archive email lists by just adding the generic archives address as a subscriber" That contribution is based on a core "technology" - a system to automatically sort (demultiplex) list email sent to a single address. I can forsee similar technology being used in other applications than mail-archive.com. For example, it might be used by email user agents, both local and web based, to do automatic sorting on behalf of a single human user. There may be other, as yet unforseen uses. Thus, I want to polish the automatic sorting algorithm if I can, since it is the key technology. That's why I'm willing to spend time tackling the automatic sorting bugs. Jeff PS Happy holidays.
