Yes.

When you click an attachment link in the old Pianotech archive, it
probably has the old domain name, "www.ptg.org". Try changing that
portion of the address to "mail.ptg.org", and see if that produces the
attachment.

Attachments that have been sent to the list since the server's name
became mail.ptg.org (late 2010) should be accessible without this
workaround.

I certainly hope so. I am inheriting the programs Andy Rudoff wrote to
perform the translation of the archive to the Higher Logic
discussions. I will do my best to make sure they are preserved. They
have been quite valuable to me in my piano work.

If you look at the current my.ptg.org Pianotech Archive (the result of
an earlier test run) the attachments appear as discussion item
attachments, and are translated to Library items. I'll know more
details when I've had a chance to study the programs.
