This is the mailing list where Satoshi sent the Bitcoin whitepaper. This is the month after (as Satoshi sent it on the 31st of October, there were no replies until Nov). You can see both the general dialogue of the era, plus all the takes from cryptography nerds, including many who did not understand the significance.
