We have received requests in the past to provide access to
messages in our mailing list archives in their original formats
in addition to the HTML-formatted versions.

We have done this, so each archive overview page now has a
'Mailbox format' link that points to a directory with monthly
mailboxes for that list, e.g.

     http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/chairs/
  -> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/chairs/mboxes/

Each mailbox is served with content-type application/mbox as
recommended in the "The APPLICATION/MBOX Media-Type" i-d:

     http://ietfreport.isoc.org/idref/draft-hall-mime-app-mbox/

You should be able to configure your browser to view these
mailboxes using your mail software of choice.

To prevent bulk harvesting of email addresses by spammers, the
mailboxes for public lists are only available to those with
Member access to our site.
