Richard Barrett's patches for integrating ht://dig with Mailman are
tested and in use and available for all reasonably current versions.
See
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.011.htp>,
and note that "#444879 - Archive indexer control to improve indexing"
is prerequisite to "#444884 - Integration of Mailman & htdig for
archive search".

These patches work with both private and public archives, and the
search form is on Mailman's archive index page.

Of course, this requires you to separately install ht://dig. Perhaps
you are looking for a patch that includes the search engine.
