  Back issues are available from ibdlist-request@menno.com. To retreive a back issue, send an e-mail message to ibdlist-request@menno.com and in the body put a line that reads get ibdlist.v*n* where v* is the volume number and n* is the issue number in that volume. An example would be ibdlist.v8n23.
  A list of files in the archives can be obtained by putting the word 'index' as the body of your message.
