Um, I mean, from an administrative standpoint: how do I shove the
mailing list into that /that/directory/where/it/wants/to/reside/?
With the .overview being set up properly?  On a reasonably continuous
schedule?

I'd think people would have a bunch of scripts for this, seeing as
there are actual mailing lists (ding-list, ding-list-recent at least)
that get filtered into nndir-friendly directories.
