Re: Hyperarchives Now Threaded: Correct URL

My earlier message had the wrong url for obtaining the source code.
 
The correct url for the mail hyperarchive is:

	http://wilson.ai.mit.edu/cl-http/sources/examples/mail-archive.lisp

A compatibility file is available containing cl-http patches 60.85, 60.86,
60.87, 60.88. This allows the hyperarchive to run in 60.57 and 60.63, 
and possibly earlier versions of cl-http. The file must be loaded before 
compiling or loading the mail-archive file.

CL-HTTP 60.57 Compatibility File:

	http://wilson.ai.mit.edu/cl-http/sources/examples/mail-archive-cl-http-60-57-patches.lisp

I am not in a position to test the comptability file, so would the first person
to run it successfully please report to this list that it works and, if necessary,
any modifications required for their platform.

Some discussion is available in:

This facility adds a new export type to http:export-url which is
documented as follows:

:MAIL-ARCHIVE exports a file containing an archive of email messages. 

It presents a summary of the mail file via URL. It also creates a search URL
by stripping any extension from URL and appending a question mark. The search
URL allows access to individual messages by number, ranges of messages by
number, and alternate summary views by view name. The following keyword
arguments are accepted:
