Does that URL work with a browser? What version of Wget are you using? Using -d will provide a full log of what Wget is doing, as well as the responses it is getting. You can mail the log here, but please be sure it doesn't contain sensitive information (if applicable). This list is public and has public archives. Please note that you also need "-r" (or even better "-r -l1") for -A to work the way you want it.
