I read Your page (second time :o))) and second what You wrote. One solution could be: For each mail sent to the list from a not subscribed user send a automtically generated answer to his mailadress containing the already generated search hash for http://www.mail-archive.com. So no volunteer is bothered to even think about any subscription issues and the "once in his life asking member" will be provided with the answers. Already done: Each message sent to any of our public lists already has such a header. This is the one of Your post I'm replying to: Archived-At: <http://go.mail-archive.com/RjF-au8F7oa5W9Jc7Z9f2S2YwhA=> No clue how much work implementing such thing.
