Please note too that MM3 supports an IArchiver interface, for which multiple
implementations can and do exist.  The core has several archiver interfaces,
and HyperKitty has an add on that can be enabled to add HK support too.  I'm
not sure what it would take to add mod_mbox support, but I can't imagine it
would be that difficult.

One thing we are lacking though is the ability for individual list owners to
opt-in to or -out of system-wide available archivers.  That's probably not a
lot of work to enable, but it does involve a schema migration most likely.
(Hmm, I just had an interesting thought about that...)
