Don't want to sound like I'm beating a dead horse, but does anyone have any idea if/when there are plans to add archive searching capabilities to a new version anytime in the near future?
I am with a hosting company that implements Mailman via CPanel control panel, so I'm not sure how much "customizing" I can do (ie: adding external searching capabilities, etc).

Adding HtDig to the installation is very, very easy. Apply the patches from Sourceforge and then follow the step by step directions and it will be done in about 2 hours.
BTW: HtDig is a search engine, so it will index any of your local web pages - not just the archives!
Good Luck - Jon Carnes

Htdig can be configured to provide search of material other than the MM list archives. However, the patches posted on sourceforge deliberately:
generate per list htdig config files so that each list has its own, separate search indexes. That is separate from other lists archives and any Htdig indexes for other material
a cron script which runs re-indexing for each list independently
makes Htdig searches of list archive indexes deliver search results returning URLs which invoke a cgi script (installed by the patch) to preserve list privacy.
If you want to index other stuff on the same server with Htdig then you have to add your own htdig config file to cover that material and provide your own serach form to get thoses indexes searched.
