This is disabled in majordomo because it doesn't act the way people
expect. What that would do is to cause majordomo to re-send all
the archived messages to you, one by one. That can quickly overwhelm
the destination and get the mail server banned as a spam source.
Is there an official repository for browsing mailing list archives?
marc.info seems reputable but unofficial.
Unfortunately, there isn't currently a way to download the
archives in mailbox format, which is probably what you want.
Luckily, I am young and can build a nice repository myself!
I'll be sitting pretty in 5 years :)
Thank you for your timely response,
