Alex Kaufman, of Mailwarrior fame, vanished from the net.

I was curious; this wasn't particularly thorough.

(untried) via his domain information ∞

TODO

(dead end) - Via the forum ∞

• Home page notes Discussion Board which was excluded from The Internet Archive Wayback Machine.

(dead end) - Via his mailing list ∞

Mailing list was ListBot

• Looking at the source code of that page, and the email address of Kaufman_Discussions at listbot.com, the mailing list name was Kaufman_Discussions
• I see no way to view archives via the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, and some cursory web searches did not find archives.
• That archive reports that listbot.com was going to be shut down 2001-07-20.

• The ListBot shutdown FAQ says that 2001-08-20 was the last day to retrieve ListBot data. This was a free service, but I don't believe the data was ever made public (as with a public directory of users and a web-accessible list of back-issues of emails)

(untried) - Via his website's designer ∞

Want to really try? Maybe his original designer was a friend or otherwise knows something?
