Another 'lost' mirror is http://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/www.postgresql.org/

the server is currently down for major repairs but the mirror seems to have
been discontinued long before that (you could still get a page but it was
the 'pre-blue period' mostly yellow elephant page).

Is it lost forever?

Stuart.
