At my faculty we needed a tool to search MLs for our Operating Systems
courses (with archives 5+ years long).
We tried a few options:
* google custom search - sucks a lot!
* xapian/omega - not a very usable interface - students complained about it
* two other tools I can't remember right now
We settled with Lurker: http://lurker.sourceforge.net/
Our lists: http://cursuri.cs.pub.ro/lurker/splash/index.en.html
An example mailing list collection:
http://archives.free.net.ph/splash/index.html
It can search in a single list, in all or in groups of lists and has
all sorts of search criteria (date, subject, author, etc.)
It doesn't seem to have a big performance impact.
I have no idea how it can be integrated to work with IRC chats, or web
sites or other, but it would be a step forward from from
freelists.org's google custom search.
