I realize that MM doesn't contain such a thing, I was hoping someone would know of an external package that does this.
I was hoping I was just being an idiot and overlooking an obvious package; that's the easiest thing to fix.
Mailman was never intended to be a webmail system. It was never intended to be a web forum system. However, there are some patches floating around that you could use to integrate Mailman with a number of different web forum systems, if you have users that would prefer that method.
Integrating with a webmail system would probably be a bit more work, since there's really not much on the Mailman side of things to be done -- it's mostly just setting up a webmail server and giving people a way to sign up for accounts, then giving them a way to use those accounts to send e-mail to the mailing lists you host -- which could just as easily be on a totally different machine.
