I *THINK* it's because of problems with nullfs. ISTR that the mail
archives were put into the anon. ftp area on freefall using a null
mount, but David (I think) found that freefall was crashing as a
result of these null mounts and removed them.

Until nullfs is fixed, don't hold your breath. I can't think of any
other way of putting the archives up for ftp without moving them into
the anon. ftp area :-(
