Excellent point. I also responded to jimmy re searching on wiki-l (
)
Whoever we delegate to tackle the mailing list, will do your task as well.
I would like to tbe the person that we delegate to.
I've also added your point to
moving from wikipedia-l:

and it could be linked on the archives themselves, I suppose.
Random thought: would it be possible to have mailman insert into the
message footer the URL for that message in the archives?
I sometimes find I want to cite a message from one of the lists on the
wiki or elsewhere and while it's trivial to look it up in my mail
archives, I need to go to the web archives and find the message all over
again in order to point other people at the same message short of just
pasting the entire text in again.
