 So into the too hard basket I think :)

How about just doing a 'wget -r' on the old archive and storing it
in some random directory on lists.ozlabs.org as static files?
Then you only need a single rewrite rule.

 No, because the actual article numbers changed when I rebuilt the archive
 on the new server.
 
 Sorry.

The list has now moved.  Please report any problems to me.

The archives on lists.ozlabs.org (and ozlabs.org) have unfortunately not
retained their URLs (the basename of the article URLs changed).  The
archives on http://www.mail-archive.com/linuxppc-...@ozlabs.org/info.html
should continue.

I do, however, have the old archives, so maybe we can do something ...
