My apologies for asking this OT question on the list, but I'm hoping someone can help me. I have been lurking and monitoring this list for a long time, but getting messages in digest mode. Now, I am getting ready to roll out a live installation, and I'd like to have all of the list messages on my local computer so that I can view them in my preferred client (Thunderbird) as threads. Is there a way to download the entire list archives locally, keeping the message states (Date/Times, etc)? Tia, even if the answer is no... ;) -- Charles

It wouldnt be a local copy but you can view the list as threads via a newsgroup interface. -- Rens
