  From a "wading through archives found through google" perspective I find
mhonarc archives tend to be much easier to deal with.  The default config is
simple and effective and even useful(shock).  Much better than pipermail and
MARC(.theaimsgroup.net) and lightyears ahead of that steaming pile of crap
sourceforget uses.

  Of course, and NNTP gateway couldn't hurt either, or maybe I should try to
get gname.org to carry it.  Pan beats any web archive, and I assume thats
true for any usenet reader.
