Let's say I just joined the XEmacs development mailing list after a long
absence. I find a message in the archive from two years ago that is
relevant to an issue I'm having. I'd like to follow up to that message
using my normal mail toolchain, but I found the archive page through
Google. I should be able to click on a link on that page, enter my
email address (perhaps through some validation dance, or subject to a
request governor) and then the message -- as it was originally copied to
the list membership -- would show up in my inbox, exactly as if I were a
list member at the time.
Now I can hit 'reply' and inject myself seamlessly into that 2 year old
thread.
As long as the mailing list name/address hasn't migrated/changed in the
interim...
...perhaps the original message munged to ensure current accuracy of the
to/cc/reply-to fields?
