Regarding configuring Mhonarc with Mailman. Is there a FAQ or instructions
on how to configure this. I have a configuration running with the default
archive ( pipermail ) but would really like to have the search capabilities
on the archive.

Regards,

Pipermail does not fully soppport MIME, character sets,
customisation of the generated HTML, alternate indexing forms, or
embedded CGI behaviours such as being able to post replies from the
web archives, or search indexes.

That's one reason.

They can.

There are several ways to do it.  You can configure Mailman
internally to use MHonArc instead of Pipermail, or yuo can subscribe
an archiver address to each list and then use procmail to handle the
automation.  (I do the later).
