I found that the archive service via POP is disabled by my mistake
about access control of (origin NNTP) DeleGate which had become
not appropriate after some version up.  So I updated the configuration
of POP-DeleGate on wall.etl.go.jp and confirmed it works as follows:

% telnet wall.etl.go.jp 110
Trying 192.50.77.225...
Connected to wall.etl.go.jp.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Proxy-POP server (DeleGate/5.8.7 by paeaabth4-2js3gfzxiqdw.ml@delegate.org) at wall.etl.go.jp starting.
USER delegate-en
+OK gatewaying to NNTP server // 200 localhost PROXY NNTP server  DeleGate/5.8.7 READY. // 211

It will not be available because I'm refusing any robots to retrieve
the archive (via NNTP/HTTP gateway), using "/robots.txt"
