>From what I can see, the only way to access the archives
of this tz list is to download a gzipped archive of the whole
thing.

One simple, attractive alternative would be to use the free services of
	http://www.mail-archive.com/
who already have over 4000 lists archived.

Excerpt from their FAQ:
  How can I archive a public list? 
           1.Subscribe archive at jab.org to the mailing list. 
           2.Many lists send either a confirmation request or
             acknowledgement here.
             Take care of any confirmations that the list requires. 

         The Mail Archive automatically detects when it receives mail
         from a new list.....

Support for XML/RDF headlines etc is also a cool feature.

It is a pleasure to read in the FAQ about their attitude towards spam,
and their innovative techniques to dramatically reduce the risk that
spammers will take advantage of their on-line archives.
