Yes, for users@ and dev@ lists.

This archives interface is poorer than the Nabble  interface, but it 
exists: that's already a major point!

  * Its search engine is welcome, although it is not as handy as the
    former Nabble's one.
    I will use it for the "uman .. @" command in the next uman 3.1
    release (soon).

  * All binary inclusions  -- screenshots of figures, etc -- are simply
    ignored, and without any reference (blank lline). So they become
    completely invisible. This make related messages quite strange,
    since readable comments might become about invisible contents.

  * Apparently, any plain/text attachment is appended to the displayed
    message.

  * The display of the posted code samples may be corrupted, with
    removed \newline. This makes copy/pasting hazardous.
    See for instance
    https://www.mail-archive.com/users@lists.scilab.org/msg10674.html :

    plot3d(t,t,z) gce().thickness = 0;

    There were 2 \newline between plot3d and gce() in the posted and
    received message...
    Apparently, the interface needs semi-colons to not concatenate
    distinct rows..!

Good idea. Thanks for the reference.

The pipermail archive of enseignement at lists.scilab.org is already up to 
date (=> 2021):
http://lists.scilab.org/pipermail/enseignement/
For all other lists -- users-fr@, etc -- , indeed these archives stop in 
2013.

Samuel
