How to Retrieve Files from the Lists's Archives

*Note*  The archive was automatically set to 6 months. 

Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list.  These may include:
     - back issues of the list
     - help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list
     - daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list

To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index" command:

        index demo-list

If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename.

For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.200402" (presumably the messages posted to the list in February 2004), you would put the lines

        get demo-list profile.form
        get demo-list demo-list.200402
