I was dusting off my local nmbug repository today, and noticed that
some messages are tagged in the nmbug repository [1] but missing from
our mbox archive [2].  Here's a list:

  $ nmbug status

Some of those have Message-IDs which suggest their generation date,
but we can lookup the first tag for each message ID in the nmbug
history regardless:

  $ for id in $(nmbug status | awk '{print $2}' | uniq);
  > do
  >   nmbug log -- --date=short --format='%ad %h %an %s' --reverse -- "tags/${id}" | head -n1;
  > done | sort | uniq

If somebody has copies of those messages, can they push them up into
the mbox?  Maybe they went to the freelists list [3]?  Maybe they were
off-list?  Maybe they just missed inclusion in the mbox?

There may be more messages missing from the archive which I happen to
have locally (e.g. maybe I was CCed), and I haven't checked for those.
But I know the entries listed above were missing as of 2017-10-10
20:41 UTC (my most recent archive download).

Cheers,
Trevor
