You may want to take a look at glimpse and harvest. Here are some useful URLs for them: http://glimpse.cs.arizona.edu:1994/ http://harvest.cs.colorado.edu/

We sure need some indexing and searching to use the archive. A directory command at ftp.hks.net:/cypherpunks/nntp/cypherpunks get you 8200+ lines of: ... -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 34609 Sep 24 20:02 3255 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 1154 Sep 24 20:24 3256 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 1443 Sep 25 03:15 3257 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 1675 Sep 25 03:33 3258 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 1634 Sep 25 10:35 3259 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 3243 Jul 21 23:59 326 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 955 Sep 25 11:41 3260 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 2088 Sep 25 12:05 3261 -rw-r--r-- 1 8 8 3930 Sep 25 12:06 3262 ... Why its virtually encrypted! How fitting.

Here are some useful URLs for them: http://glimpse.cs.arizona.edu:1994/ http://harvest.cs.colorado.edu/ Both very good systems. Harvest is probably overkill. Glimpse is nice, but I don't know if it handles mail archives (unless they are one-file-per-message).

There used to be a WAIS index of cypherpunks on mariposa, but it doesn't seem to work now. WAIS indexing mail archives is pretty easy. - Jonny G
