            I think I used to have the Ytsejam digests back until around
    #100 up until #2000+ I think. I'd have to do some hunting to dig them up
    if someone expresses interest. I also have a more recent set spanning
    #3650 - #4930 plus some even more recent ones. I don't think the newer
    ones are complete. They're all in the standard mailbox text format.
            Let me know if you want me to find them.
