I think it’d be good to migrate without breaking URLs – there are technologies (server redirects) that should make it possible to do it automatically, with only minimal one-time effort to generate matching static redirects. As the current archive has messages going all the way to 2008, it feels the blast radius of link breakage will be significant without that.

Hi Everyone:
The provider hosting this mailing list is about to terminate their service in the next couple of weeks. We plan to re-host the list with a new provider in the coming days. During this process, the mailing list software will be upgraded to a newer version. The complete mail archive will be migrated, but it will be accessible through a new user interface. As a result, links to the current archive at [1] will break.
For example, if you cited or otherwise linked to an archived message like the one below, the link will no longer work and result in a "not found" page:
http://lists.sigcis.org/pipermail/members-sigcis.org/2026-June/009106.html
The new archive will use a different URL scheme for links. These will look like this (please note that the following is just an example and isn't functional):
https://lists.sigcis.org/archives/list/members@lists.sigcis.org/thread/FVEK3...
Hopefully, this will not cause any problems for any of you.
We are currently finalizing the exact migration date with the new provider and will announce it on this list soon. Any messages sent during the migration may end up in the old system and therefore won't be included in the new archive. To prevent this, don't send any message on the announced day until the migration is complete, which we will inform you about in a separate email.
Thanks, Gregor
