Instead of aiming to list the multiple archives in multiple locations in
multiple languages, a better place to raise awareness of the
<https://docs.freebsd.org/mail/> alternative might be: 

<https://www.freebsd.org/community/mailinglists/>

– expand, enhance and habitually refer to that page. Ultimately less of a
maintenance burden. 

Thanks
