Oh, what I would really like is to be able to pull up
archives.postgresql.org emails based on message id so I can link to the

any of the other Postgres email archive sites.
This is something I've been looking into my own organization. The message
ids are at the start of the archive web pages. For example your e-mail
here I'm replying to begins like this if you look at the page source:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2008-03/msg00554.php

I was thinking of writing something that scraped the archives building a
lookup table out of this information. What would be nice is if the
X-Message-Id and X-Reference were both put into the regular HTML for
future archived messages so that it's more likely tools like Google could
search based on them. A brief glance at the MHonArc documentation
suggests that could be run to re-covert any existing messages that are
still available in order to add to those even.
