Speaking of the archives, it would be nice if they were browsable on a
mobile device without having to scroll horizontally.

It's hard to sensibly display plaintext e-mail that's 80 columns in
width on a mobile device. Maybe some scheme that is better than "use a
smaller font" is possible. For example, perhaps there is some
sophisticated algorithm that can remove newlines without breaking too
much. I understand that there is probably some subtlety that doesn't
occur to me here. It would be nice if we could do better, somehow.
