The stuff which predates the creation of the mirror list? No, of course
not. The only source for that is Yahoo, and they make it very, very
difficult to retrieve that data. Sure, you can go in and pull down any
message you like, but we're talking about something on the order of
14000 messages. You don't do that by hand, and Yahoo actively tries
to confound the tools one would normally use to retrieve that much
stuff.
