Maybe stupid, maybe not (I think the first) .. I've retrieved all my
yahoo-groups archive mail and saved it to a MBOX file. 

41.000 messages, 70Mb

Now: using Mhonarc to put it in a nice archive way. 

Problem:
My index files get TOO big (5 to 7Mb for index.html/thread.html/date.html is
too much)

So searching in archives from mhonarc I find several rc files but none of
the scripts do provide me a way for archiving the stuff in a way which can
be suitable for everyone.

Have a look at <http://www.mhonarc.org/mharc/>.  It includes a
mbox-month-pach script which should allow you to import your large
mailbox into mharc's raw mail archive format.

- Indexfiles which makes it possible to 'search/select' at
Year, Month, Week, (messages from 1999 to 2002 in the archive) are selected
With the note that it should be not too big .. 
- Search function (I've to find this out what's needed, that's reading the
manual...)

mharc provides integration with Namazu to provide full-text searching.

A separate list, mharc-users(_at_)mhonarc(_dot_)org, exists for mharc users.
If you try it out and have any questions, just subscribe and post
your questions there.
