Where can I find the archives?  The welcome email says 

You can find archives of this, and the other amanda lists in:

        ftp://ftp.amanda.org/pub/amanda/maillist-archives

But this location doesn't exist.

You need to use either tar-1.13.25 or tar-1.15.1 in order to restore 
from this archive.  Your version (which is probably 1.14.x) has problems 
restoring sparse files, and any file following a sparse one.  Have a 
search in the archives for more information.
