So, if you want to download the whole archive, you could run wget http://download.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/1/10909= 0 (but of course that 109090 will be larger by the time you will reading this). However, there's a catch, as gmane's script execution time is limited to 30 sec, so you will not get the whole archive, but only the first couple of thousands emails (in my case and network I got around 6k emails in one run). Therefore you'll need some loop to download only a few thousand emails in each iteration. Best, G=E1bor
