Agreed.
Long-term, "permanent" content, as well as
the casual "What is
this? here's what it looks like"
I think that short term can sort of ride the coat tales of the long term
solution.
I have no idea whether it is practical to handle those
the same, or
differently.
What if the "short term" is the current URL to files that have been
removed from emails (or uploaded directly). Admittedly this would be
somewhat subject to the current location of the archive.
Conversely the "long term" solution could simply be URL agnostic in that
you go to the at the time current URL and navigate to the message you
are looking for attachments to. I'd like to see the ability to search
by subject / date / sender / message ID / etc.
I think this method of long term solution makes the actual archive
somewhat URL agnostic. As in you get there, wherever there is, and then
pick the file(s) you want.
With this type of long term solution, it doesn't really matter if the
URL in the email breaks in the future.
