Are MSN Groups archived anywhere?

So I actually found this! msngroup.aimoo.com/

I'm trying to see if the group I was in got archived. This is pretty neat though!

It's possible that most of the MSN Groups pages haven't been archived or snapshotted by the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, since many of Microsoft's internet services (including those from MSN) required ActiveX to work properly. ActiveX was only available on Internet Explorer or any web browser using it's engine.

I forgot I made this thread but something rather odd happened a few months ago. When Outlook bought MSN, a vast majority of my emails were just straight up deleted. Just gone. Well one day I decide to check my old MSN email and all of my old emails had randomly been restored. This shocked me because they were gone for years at this point.

This is relevant because a lot of my MSN group emails were back too. I wonder if it's possible for me to use the wayback on the URL in the emails?

This is an unnecessarily rude response. Forums are meant for discussion, you don't have to respond if you don't find what I am saying interesting. I've been on these threads long enough to understand what thinking out loud is.

Idk how many threads you've been on but stating your hypothesis is pretty common here. I haven't really had the time to dig through my middle school email and test those links yet, but on the other hand I was genuinely wondering if it would work anyway. Not to mention this is a thread by me, so it's not like I'm wasting OPs time cuz I'm OP.

Edit:
I'd argue you haven't really contributed much to this thread other than your server migration statement, which I'm not even sure is the case. As these emails disappeared around 2010 and then re-appeared in 2023. I literally have emails from Borders before they went out of business, that's how long ago it was.

Multibillion-dollar companies tend to retain their old web assets... and grossly mismanage them. Remember when Google broke their Google Groups' advance search functionality... then fixed it... then knee-capped it and left it wrecked since 2014? I do!

Now it says 403 Forbidden nginx.
