If a message was only posted exclusively on other lists, it should stay there and it's archives. public-inbox provides a way to lookup external messages by Message-ID for this reason. Is there a way to lookup messages by Message-ID from the msysgit archives? I could add it to the existing list of alternate Message-ID lookup services: https://public-inbox.org/meta/20160814054731.26194-1-e@80x24.org/ GoogleGroups doesn't seem usable without JavaScript at all, unfortunately :< I don't think the msysgit archives would be too large and I wouldn't mind hosting them myself. But, users on GoogleGroups may not be used to our conventions and not appreciate having their unobfuscated addresses exposed or reply-to-all... I will probably add an option to support centralized lists to public-inbox sometime, though. I don't like centralization, but completely inaccessible archives are worse.
