In this case, I would agree, as (looking at the email) those are the
official project resources.  Which I would think should make a more
stable archival URL to link to.  Probably whatever the official project
archives are, generally, I would say should be your best bet.

For other cases (and future reference), I learned recently there are
actually several websites where you can search/link to URLs by
Message-ID, listed on that Wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message-ID

Then there are also some public-inbox instances around, I know of at
least one private one with pretty good coverage of a few lists I care
about (including this one).  And Org Mode have an official one (maybe
some other projects, too).

Cheers,
TRS-80
