Except that Mailman already cuts the content down to a pretty short
max size in the texarea anyway, so this would never be an issue...

Also, reading separate scrolling windows is cumbersome compared to
scrolling the main browser window, and takes *more* screen space for
very short messages, not to mention the difficulty in Lynx :( 
Most efficient could be a very concise:

<pre>
Date:
From:
Subject: These already above?

Configurable
first few 
lines...
</pre>
