Without meaning to open Pandora's Box, does anyone have any comments/ideas on the legality and/or usefulness of munging the .mbox files (as suggested/ questioned by someone the other day) to change all references to list.cobalt.com into lists.qbalt.org prior to importing? That way the messages will refer back into their "new" home and not lead to dead-ends.
If you change the references to the list, you are altering the message. This is not like copying or reproducing. It would not even be Fair Use as you are using the entire message.
I suggest leaving the message as it is and adding a link at the bottom of that webpage to refer to the "new" home.
