[Mailman-Developers] Patch for Mail Archive mirroring

[Jeff Marshall]

I have submitted a patch to SourceForge for consideration.

Feature:
- New third party archiving option that uses The Mail Archive.  The implementation subscribes or unsubscribes the archive at mail-archive.com address from the subscriber list.

The benefit to the list admin is to have a one-click setup option to provide them with mirroring and searchable archives.

We (me and the other Jeff that admin The Mail Archive) have spoken with Lars at Gmane to see if we could make this work for Gmane as well, but he said their subscription process is manual and requires extra information, so Lars didn't think it would work for him.

Patch was made against the latest CVS in branch Release_2_1-maint, which is currently 2.1.6rc3.

Feedback?

Thanks.
