I'd be inclined to agree wrt user interface. Documentation regarding
this, and anything else to do with lurker, appears somewhat scarce -
speaking as someone who has just migrated the exim.org lists to using
lurker archiving. [previously we used mailman with the MHonArc/pipermail
hybrid]
I am considering starting a set of pages within our wiki about use of
lurker (we tend to cover almost everything else about mail so why not
that).

Integration with externals feels like a good way to go.

The ML appears... lacking in vigor..
BTW lurker gives all messages an ID which is 3 parts separated by
periods. The first part is a date field - ie 20070720, the second part
is the receive time, UTC, as 6 digits, and the final part is some form
of hex id. The nice part is if you quote just the first (or first 2)
parts of message ID you get messages around that time...
