Hmmm, weird, that should IMHO mean that the message also comes to the 
developers' mailinglist, but I haven't seen it there yet.

http://boost.org/more/mailing_lists.htm lists the various mailinglists and 
there is also an entry 'Archives for Boost developers list', I was talking 
about those.

I'll take a look at the issue, but I can only do the latter as I don't have a 
CVS account for writing.

Question remains if I should try to reactivate the non-working archives or 
simply remove their links? The archives from GMANE work and are provided for 
all lists (I think), so that should be enough. Any opinions on that?
