I think it's a great idea! :) [1] LLVM did the same recently (though they imported all previous messages from the mailinglist, thus making them searchable in discourse) [2 - announcement; 3 - retro], and by and large, I think it was a success.
One of the comments in the retro was: > Searching the archives is much easier and have found me many old threads that > I probably would have problem finding before since I haven’t been subscribed > for that long. I that it would be worth considering importing the mailing list into a separate discourse category that's then archived, but at least searchable. This would also lower the hurdle of new(er) contributors to investigate previous discussion on a given topic.
