Does this news group have an archive site for past articles?
Or at least, does anyone have this years or most of this years
posts to this newsgroup?

[Administrator's note: yes and yes. I recently changed the way
message archiving is done for MHSNews/comp.protocols.iso.x400 so that
the most recent messages are always available. The archives are
available for anonymous FTP at ics.uci.edu [128.195.1.1] in the
directory internet/mhsnews.

The names of the files reflect the range of message dates. The dates
have the form yymmdd-yymmdd, where yy=year, mm=month, and dd=day.
The files with .Z extensions are in compressed format; see compress(1)
on UNIX and analogous utilities on other systems. Use binary mode to
transfer these files.
Messages in the archive files are delimited in MMDF format, using
^A^A^A^A<CR> ("\001\001\001\001\n" for you C buffs out there) at
the beginning and end of each message.
The most recent messages are in the file "901018-present". This file
is not compressed; it is updated for each new message.
