I thought the only archiver you knew was mhonarc? Not the biggest frame
of reference :-)

I was looking at this after I posted my last message. Hypermail supports
HTML templates which may be used instead of headers and footers. These
do have variables, however I couldn't see one for posting date :-(
Probably not the hardest mod in the world to add it to the program, but
unfortunately I just started a new module at Uni so am somewhat short of
spare time again...
