I'd love to. I do subscribe the linux-mm. But I subscribe other kernel mailing
lists (fsdev and ext4-dev) with same mail address. I can do:
  1. export all emails I got from May 31 to June 6 (Maybe from May 30 to June 7) to
     a mbox file
  2. export all emails with linux-mm as Cc/To/From from May 31 to June 6 to a mbox
     file

And upload the mbox file to somewhere. Just let me know what I should do.

I'd like to say the lore archives are really helpful to my colleagues and myself.
Really appreciate your guys' great work.
