Just to let everyone know I am going with the following solution: Hypermail (http://www.hypermail.org/) for archiving and Sphider (http://cs.ioc.ee/~ando/sphider/) as the search engine.
Since cPanel would overwrite any changes or patches I would make to the mailman installation whenever a new version would come out, I decided to nix the idea of using a custom patch applied to my mailman installation. I rather use a third party solution such as above to create archives on a list by list basis. My programmer will be doing the installation and configuration and will be detailing the steps to setup searchable archives outside of mailman's installation directory. Would this be something worthwhile to add to the Mailman FAQ?

I use Plesk, and have not found anything different in my Mailman installation in the Python/HTML and config files other than a different base location than an installed-from-source Mailman would have. Everything behaves the way I expect, except for the fact that I have to create lists using Plesk, which is not a hardship (and in fact it's easier than my much older previous installation from source). Does anyone know whether or not Plesk has made any changes?
