As I've mentioned a number of times, I've spent quite a bit of time
doing that already - I just don't have the spare cycles to finish
right now. We currently have a parser/archiver that will incrementally
archive messages from the (growing) mboxes into a database, and a web
frontend which resolves many of the problems with the current
archives.

There are optimisation/performance issues to be solved, as well as
some PHP crashes that seem to manifest themselves only on the FreeBSD
production server. The mime handling could also use some improvement
to properly reconstruct multi-part messages, but in reality I'm not
sure we ever have any where that's actually an issue.

If anyone else wants to pickup where I've left off, please let me know.
