You guys think it might be an idea to export these in some format and make them searchable? Can I say put 12,000 text files on CHIMPY and let people use the SEARCH command to look for specific keywords (i.e. will the performance be reasonable)? Alternatively, I suppose I could build some quick web app for browsing/searching the mails (authenticated of course, don't want the whole world to see our list). Any ideas? It's something similar that I had in mind to do at some point. My only "problem" is that I also keep some "private" mails related to HECnet in the same folder, so I should sort that out. I have something close to 16.000 mails in my archive. I think it would be nice if you did something, but I have no clear idea how it should be done.
