Sorry, I can't, FSFE has set the archives for subscribers-only, so as long as you or the reader is accepted as subscriber, then they can read the archives. I guess this was probably done so that end-users don't end up receiving recommendations of non-free software, although there might be other reasons that I'm not aware of (the one I just mentioned is just a guess).
