Thank you very much for providing this archive!

I noticed that for some emails, they only say

A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

e.g. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/1997-May/001595.html

Mail in this archive https://github.com/MichaelChirico/r-mailing-list-archive/blob/dd37885b9a7ca840a6df835a2075f9b78b8cf0be/r-help/1997-May.txt#L475-L486

It seems that the full message content is then contained in a file attachment.pl, which is not included in this archive. Do you think there's any chance that you can also archive it?

I'm not sure the appropriate way to do so, do you have any suggestions? A PR would be most welcome. I'm open to the idea but not willing to invest much time -- just clicking the link seems "good enough" to me at a glance.
