That's frequently what I do. The pain is that although it's nice to use (e.g. mutt or Thunderbrid) to thread the message nicely for reading, it becomes a pain to put in any http links to the online archives afterwards. I don't suppose anyone has a neat solution for that?
I typically work on FWN via the web archives. I'm often behind in my normal mail client, so that's 90% of where I read the messages actually.
Here is what I did so I could work last night.
#!/bin/bash ROOT=/home/dlbewley/work/fedora/fwn LISTS='fedora-virt fedora-xen libvir-list ovirt-devel et-mgmt-tools' for list in $LISTS; do echo "# getting list $list" wget -N -P $ROOT -r -l1 https://www.redhat.com/archives/$list/2009-January/thread.html done
Copy and paste the file:/// URLs then translate them at the end. Woulda been nice to have mediawiki on my laptop so I could preview my edits...
I'm at a hotspot now, so I'll update my beat shortly. -- Dale Bewley - Unix Administrator - Shields Library - UC Davis GPG: 0xB098A0F3 0D5A 9AEB 43F4 F84C 7EFD 1753 064D 2583 B098 A0F3
