It worked.

The problem with the message-id approach, at least that one, is that it
doesn't give the rest of the thread. It only gives us the opening post.
Let's compare with <
http://al.howardknight.net/>
Drat. "HTTP Error 503.0 - Service Temporarily Unavailable"
Let's compare then with <
https://newsgrouper.org/>
[continue as guest]
[continue]
Drat. It doesn't show the whole thread either.

Let's see if we can find the thread using any of these links:

Starting with <

which translates to <

Let's try <
https://newsgrouper.org/comp.mobile.android> by searching for
" How do nonroot Android & nonjailbroken iOS run SMB servers "
Bingo! This gives us the entire thread.
<

Now let's try <
https://comp.mobile.android.narkive.com/>
Drat. "503 Service Unavailable"
<
https://www.novabbs.com/tech/thread.php?group=comp.mobile.android>
Results in "404 Page not found."
And, of course, Google groups search died before that thread authored.

Whose last post is 2/22/24
Unless there's some other mechanism, that's all I know of.
Anyone know more than what is in the test I just ran above today?
Please let the rest of us know so we all benefit from your knowledge.
