[Mailman-Users] How do I?

[Jon Carnes]

For real digesting, you can integrate MonArch with mailman fairly easily (or
so I'm told).  Pipermail comes with Mailman, but is not too nifty in this
modern age of Mime.  My preference over archiving is to port the list to a
local News server.  You get pretty much the same effect as archiving and
searching becomes much easier.
