 Hello Jussi,

 If searching on a local archive on your host consider grepmail.

Hei,

There should be a web interface - sorry for not saying this before. I am 
looking for a web app where people can search the archive (which is in 
mbox format), and the app would return matching emails. The interface 
should be easy enough for non-geeks.

Hm, markmail.org does not seem to work for this, as our mailing list 
archive is not public. They might accept restricted-access lists, but 
probably for a fee... I am looking for a free solution.

Sorry, I thought you meant 'this' mailing list...

http://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Aorg.centos.centos+type%3Ageneral

Didn't catch that you meant a private mailing list archive.

[CentOS] Mailman - searchable archive

2010-09-28 Thread Jussi Hirvi
Mailman works well for our mailing lists, but the archive is 
unacceptable - the worst thing is lack of search function.

I got one tip for this:

1) emails converted to html format with mhonarc
2) search can be done with htdig

Opinions? Maybe there are better software solutions for this - I hope.

add a search form to the archive page header that uses a google search 
w/ site:your.archive.site.com

Hello Jussi,

If searching on a local archive on your host consider grepmail.
