I second that. Should be some simple rewriting of headers, though I guess
one would have to be carefull to prevent loops.

some of the missing mails (08/23/2004-08/26/2004) seem to have been
archived at http://news.gw.com/netbsd.help/ ....

I *could* resend them, but that would be confusing, as they would then
show up twice at news.gw.com, so I guess this is a typical case where
list-owner-intervention would be nice.
