Dear Lists,

Has anyone worked on preserving a Listserv (proprietary) archive of
messages? What can one do, other than make sure that the server hosting the
list in question is backed up (LOCKSS style, with geographic separation) and
kept up in good working order? The archive search interface does a pretty
good job at access, but what about true long-term preservation?

Any advice appreciated! Apologies for cross-postings.

Thanks,
Nathan
