[Mailman-Users] Really Fustrating - Searchable Archives

[Peter Russell]

Not being a Linux guru, just getting mailman and sendmail or postfix all
set up and working properly is a fair task. Attacking a working installing
to get mhonarc and htdig working and MM patched is just an excercise in
fustration. (without a detailed howto, slightly beyond my linux skills)

Is there anywhere that a 1, 2, 3 - press this then type that type guide
exists to achieve threaded archiving and a good search feature?

OR is there any chance that these types of features are going to be
avilable in the MM release? Or is there a CVS i can download and install?

Can anyone tell me why archive search (or even threaded archives) are not
used out of the box with this product?

Is there a product that does EVERYTHING that mailman does and does have the
search and archives features too?

The punters who wanted mailman are starting to get mad as hell at me for
not having these features going, i appreciate ANY input/suggestions.
