While it might not be the case for other projects, we actually do use
PostgreSQL for our archives, including having FTS..

I'm curious what would be different here from what our archives provide.
We could certainly have a single "all lists" archive page but that seems
more likely to be just completely confusing than actually useful at all.

We've been working to make the mobile experience better for our
archives and we'd love to make the experience better for everyone, so
please make suggestions or even send in patches; all of the code running
the archives is open.

How do you plan to address the issues around DMARC/SPF/DKIM..? If the
answer is "we don't plan to do anything" or "we are going to send email
from our own domain" then you're certainly not making it "seamless" for
us or for the user. If you have a different solution, then I think
we're certainly curious to hear it, as it would be nice to change the
-bugs and -docs forms back to using the end user's email address when
sending to the list instead of having to have a 'noreply' address be
used.
Please do *not* start causing us trouble by sending what looks like
forged email through our mailing lists and causing bounces for us to
deal with. We have more than enough of that already and if it becomes
an issue then we'll have to block, bounce, and/or unsubscribe whatever
is causing it.
Thanks!
