That's good, because the 1994Q4 link on the archive you downloaded points
to http://grail.cnri.reston.va.us/cgi-bin/mlaform/mla/94q4/, which doesn't
exist any more. As introduction explains,

I have kept (almost) all messages posted to the Python mailing list and
newsgroup while I lived in Amsterdam -- until mid April 1995. These are
accessible as hypertext, converted by Kevin Huges' excellent hypermail
program. (Except the last quarter of 1994, which was -- as an experiment --
maintained by Sam Leffler's MLA tools.)

Shame on me for using closed-source software.
