Note that the list archive has a 3.5MB overview file and has 15787 messages
in it (not including this one). I don't think anyone's foolish enough to
try and open it (C-u G A, I think) but if they did they'd be watching the
FTP clicker counting up for quite a while.
A long time ago we talked about a backend like nnml but with subdirectories
holding chunks of messages. It never got off the ground.
