Hi,
I can ask David, the infradead.org person, though I thought I'll keep
the real paper work to somebody more knowledgeable than me.

I won't do that. Let the people decide which sites hold their mail
addresses. Some may not like being moved to a different site without
their explicit agreement. People should also choose their mailing list
password on their own.

While it makes perfect sense for archive searching, I won't do that
too. When you open https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/ and
go to the bottom, then the Download section shows sizes for respective
months since year 2000. Those are gzip compressed .mbox files. For
example September 2022 shows 511KB compressed and when I decompress it,
it's 947K. I did not count all the years, but I'd rather not use so
much space on the new site immediately after moving there. That won't
be good.
Bye,
Milan
