Mail archive for Squeak (and possible restoration)

I have all of the mailing list from 11/96 (I think - I'm trusting the
archives for Squeak.9611 and Squeak.9612 to be complete) in Netscape
mail format files - I think most email programs can use or import these
files. I would be glad to share once we have a place to put it -- but it
is _huge_ and I don't want to push it down the wire more than once.
