Instead (or maybe in addition to) of working on solutions that will
help people individually and locally, why not talk to the GNU mailman
admins so that this issue could be solved as part of improving the
search facilities of the mailman archives?  That would benefit all of
us.  Not to mention that "heavy" solutions are much more likely to be
deployed as part of the GNU mailman infrastructure than by individual
users on their local machines.

Thanks.
