Dr. Webber's reply to this was broken (his Sun to M$ mail client put a
single period on a line by itself so when my fetchmail tried to grab it it
kept seeing that as an EOT) so I am replying to this message.

Dr. Webber. I don't know the full path your email takes, but have you
considered setting up something like Lurker somewhere? Lurker is a fairly
new mail archive tool that seems to have been designed for private archives
but would also scale well to larger tasks. It uses a database backend to
store whatever comes in. I still haven't tried with anything that has a
graphic attachment but it works well with text/html emails.

The archive I'm currently setting up for a Volkswagen list I am a member
of:

http://phorce1.com/lurker/  <--- this copy only has about 50K emails up
through 11/27/2005, I'm moving the archive to another machine where I can
better control automated submissions to the archive.
