I guess the only problem was, my getting confused in such a large list.
But it is a bit hard to tell how it is organized. In emacs default
view, Sept 96 comes last and Apr of 95 is sprinkled through out (about
every 11 messages or so) in places. Randomly in others.
Pressing 's' in dired (if you don't mind the wait) shows a more
understandable view.
