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.
