While I understand Chuq's concerns regarding control and protection of
his posting subscriber data it should be admitted that not all lists
share that concern, and if anything, the lists that do are rather
strongly in the minority.  GMane, mail-archive.com etc offer an
extremely useful service for a great many lists which do not have
external archiver/exploder policies (mail-archive for instance is my
preferred tool for search the Linux Kernel and BugTraq lists).

Heck, I know of more than a few lists which subscribed themselves to
mail-archive when they first started, just so they'd have an effective
searchable web archive.
