Yes, the host 'hamradio.ucsd.edu' where the mailing list is hosted also archives all messages and makes them available via the web.
It's amusing: despite not being real, from the following Apache log entries, no-such-file has been a popular target this evening:

The first one above was logged just 19 seconds after I posted the message to the list. The others came later; they could be humans. Note that none of them logged in; they just tried to fetch the file and went away. Oh, I'm not concerned, I just was a bit surprised. And curious. - Brian

Is the content of the list posted on a website? Like for archiving purposes? Otherwise someone might have a mailbox from the list configured with a scraper.. Can you see which is the source IP for the requests? Maybe this can lead you to the correct person.. 73, Ruben - ON3RVH
