Here ya go.

>From the readme:

This package parses the Squeak mailing list archive that can be downloaded at
http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/ and loads a Magma
database with a keyword index.  To use:

	[ MaSqueakMailArchiveLoader
		loadMboxFileNamed: inputString 
		intoMagmaDatabaseNamed: outputString ]

		on: MaNotification
		do: 
			[ : notification | 
			Transcript cr; show: notification messageText.  
			notification resume ]

The output database is created for you.  This load operation is very I/O
intensive and could take more than a day to run.  It is recommended to read the
input file from a different disk drive than the output file.

Once loaded, keyword access to any message using MagmaCollectionReaders on
either index should be very fast.

This is a fun experiment with Magma.  Have fun!

Cheers,
  Chris
