I agree that having Pipermail install "out of the box" with Mailman is a definite plus. Htdig is rapidly becoming a very popular add-on to those dynamic Duo (helped along by the great work that Richard Barrett does in keeping the patches up-to-date!).
Is there a reason you wouldn't want to simply include Htdig as part of the "out of the box" install? Are you thinking that we can port ht://dig over to Python and then improve it performance? :-) On Mon, 2003-01-27 at 19:33, Barry A.
