This is what I do to make the search database at http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu, which is also used for RSiteSearch.
Here is an example: wget -r -np -p --no-check-certificate https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-February/ I do this for each month. But you could probably modify this to do it all at once. I run this as root, on linux. (I'm not sure WHY I do it as root, and probably you don't need to do that.) This then gets dumped in a directory called stat.ethz.ch, with many subdirectories.
