I just started playing with namazu and love it!

I indexed the html files of a Mailman (pipermail) archive. When I do a
search, the summary contains only the mail/archive stuff, like from,
next message, previous message etc. and nothing of the message body. Is
there a way to skip x lines for the summary, or is there a better way to
index the archive?

You will need to create a custom filter that understand pipermail
HTML pages.  Namazu already has one for MHonArc archives, but
I do think there are any filters for other mail archivers.

It appears that pipermail does not clearly delimit message header
information, but at a minimum, you should be able to get namazu
to only index the message body.
