The searcher wouldn't be much use without an archiver. There is a sample
archiver in mailman core -- if enabled, it stores the messages to lists in
maildirs.  It does not have a frontend for retrieving or otherwise
displaying the archives.

In some of the other threads here, it was brought up that a builtin archiver
with the same feature set of pipermail could be desirable.  If you're
interested in integrating search into mailman I'd watch (and participate!)
in that thread to see what the outcome of that discussion is.
