I'm prepared to go along with this if there's general agreement.
However, maybe we should make it actually work first, because I
get a 404 from

http://postgr.es/m/29df5b73-d823-ade4-cb17-47142742a83c@dunslane.net

which ought to be the URL for your message. I tried the same experiment
for some of the older messages in this thread, and those are 404 too.

BTW, should it be "http:" or "https:"?
