First off, a big hats off and thank you to everyone who has worked on mailman. :) I love it, and intend to switch my entire mailing list load to it.
But I have a couple of questions. ;)
When gatwaying mail to the newsgroup and the archives the prefix for the mailing list (like [mailman-users]) doesn't show up. It only shows up on delivered mail. Is there a way to get the prefix to remain on the messages? If not I would add that it might be a nice feature for future releases. ;)
Pipermail archiving...a question and a sugestion. First, is there anyway to make the articles in the archive assend by date? And the suggestion...a search and edit funcion. Online editing for admins is extreamly useful for public archives. :)
Thanks! Great job!

Jason, such a good idea and so easy to add too! This will be in 1.0b7. I've done a bit of work on the gateway code so it should be more stable as well.

Good suggestions. I'm not sure how easy or hard it would be to reverse the sort order when sorting by date, but I agree that it's probably more useful to order it from most recent to oldest.
Searching: its a big thing on my list, but probably not for 1.0. Editing is an interesting idea and I've put that on the TODO list.
Thanks! -Barry
