Describe the bug

I've been trying to download the mail archive for the python-list (comp.lang.python mirror) via https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/ for history research purposes.

• The complete download directly fails with a message that the request will time out.
• The monthly download times out for a lot of months.
• Using the URL parameters, I then tried half month downloads and even weekly downloads, but still get time outs.

In essence there appears to be no usable way to download the complete archive using this Mailman3 interface.

Using the old Mailman2 interface from https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/, the downloads succeed without any problems - essentially those are static files, not files which the server needs to generate upon request.

Is there anything which could be done about this (e.g. extending timeouts or increasing VM sizing parameters) ?

Thanks.

To Reproduce

1. Go to https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/
2. Try to download e.g. July 2001

Expected behavior

A working download without timeouts.
