isn't it useless to protect your archives? The newsgroup version of the list is

As I read Darren's posting, the purpose is to avoid a load on his server. It does not seem that he's trying to keep any information private (note that you already have to be logged in to see the email addresses of posters, unless they personally expose them in their signature blocks).
