google google google, learn to use google. Learn to look at the advanced
search options. Notice that you can set the results to only come from a
site.

Also, maybe you should notice that the last link of every page sends you
to the appropriate mailman page for the mailing list. On that page is a
link to the archives. On that page, you can select to view any month by
thread, subject, Author, or date. Pretty simple.

You are joking right? You think you are going to do any voice over a
link that is half of the bandwidth of a phone call and you think you
will have a webserver and jabber server on it. 

Even using GSM codec, you will probably only get 1 call to work when
nothing else is working. Last I checked FWD only accepted G729 and ulaw.
You will never get ulaw across that link and you will have to purchase a
G729 license.
