No, it doesn't...  but you can do the searching for the answer as well as
I can. :)

The lynx-dev archive's index has a link to the home of the archiving
software at the bottom, the same is true for other archives.

Actually I followed that link, and the mhonarc page has a link to the
mhonarc mailing list archive.  It seems Al Gilman is active on that list.

It appears FLORA is using a quite old version of mhonarc.  Maybe if they
upgraded the lynx-dev Thread Index would become valid HTML and look
better in SortaSGML mode...

It also seems that mhonarc insets by default comments of the form
  <!--X-Subject: ... -->
  <!--X-Date:  ...  -->
  <!--X-Message-Id: ... -->
at the beginning of each document.  I am thinking of using those for
getting the kind of information that is missing.  But I don't know
how reliable that is, and it's only one package's way of doing things,
others may be completely different.
