You can use wget to download them all the mbox files at once here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/mbox/emacs-orgmode/

For instance, the following command...

wget -r -nH --cut-dirs=2 --no-parent -A "2019-*" --reject="index.html*" 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/mbox/emacs-orgmode/

..will download all mbox archives from 2019 into the directory
emacs-orgmode.

Then you can browse them in Gnus, cat them into a single file for easier
importing into a client, convert them to Maildir (via mb2md) for
indexing in notmuch, mu4e, etc.
