So the known gap is 2005-2008?

Quote:I have found it easy to chop unix-style mbox files into mh-style directories of files, one per message.  Then to discard each message file that lacks a first line saying something like "From owner-vms-list@voynich.net  Sun Mar  9 13:57:14 2008"
or a line like "To: voynich@rand.org" and then reconcatenate the remaining files.

Yeah, that is basically what I do.  But it is not that simple.  For instance, for several years I used a mail tool that would replace the "From " line with "From [tool name]".  So I must also check the "From:" and "Sender:" lines in the message header.  But then there are digests and forwards with several embedded "From:" lines...

All the best, --jorge

Thread split to get this discussion out of "News". 

Just adding that I think it would be good if a simple searchable archive is gathered somewhere. These mails represent countless hours of people doing Voynich research, so they might always contain information or leads on current research topics.
