?? It's on the page for any/all the mail-list pages ... no surprise 
there.

The fact that legitimate use by SpamCop.net users seems to be nil.

Announced within these newsgroups when I brought them on line back
around December last year.  Same announcements (and more) made
in the Forum at the same time.

on and on .....

As stated elsewhere, it is not my fault that the 'official' FAQ 
pages don't
get updated ....it's sure not as if I hid the fact that this 
happened ....

On the other hand, all of the HTML on the 'old' archives still needs
to be updated to reflect the current server where the stuff is 
residing ...
some needs to be modified/deleted as the .zip'd files don't avtually
exist ... having been deleted in one of the first attempts at 
vlearing
space on that server's hard drive .. that was back around June 2006,
when the archiving stopped.
