I'd like to recommend against HTMLification of mail archives. The only
thing worse that broken-printable patches is HTML patches. (Didn't I
learn from yesterday's QP thread? Apparently not.) The mail messages
are plain text, and now really only useful in an archived format (so
browsing is not much of a consideration).
It would be nice to have them available for ftp over a reasonably fast
link.
