You could either politely spider marc.theaimsgroup.com for the
exim-users messages, e.g. with wget and a delay between requests. Or
you could suck down the archive from Yahoogroups.com with the
"yahoo2mbox" script. I don't know how complete yahoo's archive is since
marc.theaimsgroup.com is so much better. But that script does a
remarkable job of producing a valid mbox file from yahoo's web archives,
complete with de-obfuscated email addresses, mostly correct headers, and
yahoo advertising footers removed.
