As there are no adverts on their site, why would they want you clicking around on the site? That uses resource and costs them money. It was primarily envisaged as a mail service. The web side was added because some folks wanted it. As a group owner I can download zipped archives of all content. The ability for members to download the message archive as a zipped file is configurable by the list owner. > > http://www.classiccmp.org/pipermail/cctalk/ > > The one thing I would change here is removal of the restriction on > attachments. > They take up a lot of space. > Well, two things..
