Yes, from 2007 - present, the FFML archives are stored in
http://www.chez-vrolet.net/pipermail/ffml/ (the FFML's current home). The
files I uploaded to dropbox were just the archives from the *old *FFML.
Also, a few months were missing due to hard drive crashes/times the FFML
went down hard, apparently, but I think it was just 3 months total or
something.
