I anguished also when I had listserv archives to convert and index.

I threw a 11 year archive at Fluid Dynamics Search Engine. I had had a 5 
year relationship with them using their logger. The price is free for 
non-commercial  and $40 for the lifetime license to use commercially. It has 
a file domain realm that allows you to index certain files ie msg* and 
disregards the mail* and thr* because your customer wants the information 
and not the file cabinet. No datebaseese required.

Of course when the customers go to a archived message, they can use the 
appropriate mail* or thr* file to follow that thread or see the surrounding 
messages just like Earl intended.

See the application at work with Mhonarc at: 
http://parkinsons-information-exchange-network-online.com/archive/pac.html 
or any page on that domain.
