Yes, marc's "download raw" is a godsend. Unfortunately, marc's search
isn't very good, so I sometimes find myself searching one of the
hypermail archives just to find the date/time/author then getting the
raw download from marc.
It would be nice to see an official corporate sponsor step up to the
plate to provide funding for a really definitive archive site. Two
features I'd like to see:
- Google-quality archive search engine
- Download multiple messages in mbox format for offline reading
