Search the mailing list archives.  A while back someone asked about
including some messag body text in index pages.  Since the user could
pre-process the mail before it was passed to MHonArc, I recommended
leveraging the annotation feature to get the desired effect.
I.e. Pre-create an annotation for each message including the first
few lines of a message and then use the $NOTE$ resource variable to
include it in the index.
