That depends ;) By sending the command INDex listname to the appropriate listserv the user will get a list of available files concerning the list in question. If these include filenames beginning with LOG and ending in numbers, the user may - if he has sufficient privileges - download them with the GET listname.LOGnnn command. (nnn specifies the timeframe of the particular log) If this is not possible (because of the list settings in effect) his only hope will be in the list maintainer and other subscribers who may have a personal archive of the list's postings.
