Um, if your mail box doesn't work, and you get unsubscribed 
you don't get a notice either :-) 

Here's the bounce message for your mailbox:

   550 jbv.silences at wanadoo.fr... User unknown

Mind, for every subscriber with this kind of problem a mail gets
sent to the maintainer for EVERY mail sent on a mailing list.
With a few subscribers with problems this results in a few hundred 
mails per day.

Indeed the link to the archives on the web is wrong, I'll correct this.
The original way to access the archives is not via the web, but via majordomo
itself:

To get a listing of already archived messages send a mail to 
'majordomo at node12b53.a2000.nl' with a line: 

  index synth-diy

To get a file from the archive: 

  get synth-diy filename
