Hi Peggy,<br>
<br>
You're very welcome - and thanks for emailing me (separate from this
list) the prior archives in "mbox" format. I was able to view them
with an mbox file viewer (the Open Source mail program, Thunderbird)
- so I don't think there should be a problem preserving them. It
even included a few attachments - which were also preserved.<br>
<br>
I do only count 298 in the mbox file, and since you also sent me the
zipped Apple Mail .eml files - there were also exactly 298 of those.
Let me know if you have more that we'd need to convert.<br>
<br>

P.S. It's good to be home in Montana after the blizzard on the East
Coast of the U.S. delayed our flights 3 times over 3 days. There
were so many stranded passengers, and many had been in airports for
2-3 days because of the weather. It was interesting that a
disruption like a blizzard can sometimes "open space" for people to
converse more - tell stories - exchange "memories" like Harrison
talks about in Wave Rider.<br>

<pre wrap="">Harold,
Thanks for stepping in with such a great solution. I'll add one little twist, if possible. The current archives goes back to 1999. I have an additional ~1,000 messages that take us back to the list's beginnings in December, 1996.
Is it possible to incorporate them into the archives?
Peggy
