<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>is there a program that can read the mailing list archives from a local flie and format them like the online options (ie date, thread, author). i downloaded each months archies but the seem to be huge flat files with alot of repition for threads. i looked into mailman but evidently it requires an expert to force it into windows and if i was an expret i wouldn't need the list so much ;) .im currently running xp on a 2.6 pentium if that matters. and i have a glitchy dial up which is why i want to run from the local files. by the time i get reconnected during high traffic times i lose my train of thought, very bad for the untrained mind. thanks for any help/pointers. i'm still at the raw newbie stage learning python as a first comp language so make it for dummies style if ya can. thanx. roy</DIV></div><br clear=all><hr> <a href="http://g.msn.com/8HMAENUS/2734??PS=">Instant message in style with MSN Messenger 6.0.
