I dont know anything about bundling distros and such but I am very pleased
with the installation my ISP ( http://justcomm.org/#tigertech ) has of
Mailman with searchable Mhonarc archives. I wish someone would create
such a package.

With 25,000 messages of http://lists.cohousing.org/archives/cohousing-L/
or a little list with my sibs when I wanted to find when my son's cat
died... they just work.

I only have list owner access to the MM web admin interface
(plus my ISP's admin interface to create a new MM list).
But I only have to request special assistance once in a while.
