I have another question:  on the CP archive page  https://mailing-list-archive.cryptoanarchy.wiki/authors/notable/   
  , it has an option to show "Notable Authors".  Finding my own listing, it states:

| My posting count above, 1118, seems to be larger than anybody's, except for Tim May. I wonder over what time frame this posting-count is derived.  |  At least based on the 1995 forged archive, almost none of my messages that would have posted 1995 are there!  | I would imagine that the largest proportion of my total sent messages, at least during 1995-1997, come from 1995. | So, where did that count, "1118" come from??   | And WHICH count does it appear to reflect:   The genuine count, or the forged count? | And there's another question:  The vast majority of the messages which should have been directed "to" me in 1995 to not appear.   | Do the people's message-counts who sent emails to me include those now-phantom emails, or omit them? |
