In the June 2008 archives, there's a mail message with the subject line
"[Wireshark-users] Help needed controlling tshark output format", from Andrew
Cuthbertson, posted at 07:20; it's followed by several mail messages with "[no
subject]" and an "Unknown" author.

Those are actually parts of Mr. Cuthbertson's message; unfortunately, his
message had several paragraphs beginning with "From ", and I suspect the
archives might be stored in mbox format, with "From " lines marking the
beginning of a new message, and that mail message body lines beginning with
"From " aren't getting a ">" prepended to the "From " to prevent those lines
from looking like the "From " line at the beginning of a mail message.
