One can think of archiving the list via Nabble.
http://www.nabble.com/MailingListArchive.html
It has been done e.g. on the SuperCollider mailing list (and many others).
It has proven helpful.

Can't there be a lilypond forum instead of a lilypond mailinglist?
No, this would not be helpful.
Mailinglists are: somewhat dated, far from structured, and posts tend
to become bloated when for instance ppl start quoting quotes of
quotes of quotes of quotes, or simply quote a whole post and add one
extra line to it, etc.
That's why we discourage such behavior. Besides, massive quoting is a
huge problem on forums; much less so on mailists.

Foucault, but not at the same time; too much information./
