I want to move my discussion forum from a Mailman with MHonArc Archives to FUDforum.

The questions I have are as follows:

1. Can a easily move my email address subscriber list and generate user name and passwords? Will this information be automatically sent to the subscribers.

2. How do I convert my archive of messages? I know there is a script to convert a mailbox into FUDforum. I have 20,000+ messages but only about 10,000 of the messages in a mailbox format. The MHonArc archive stores all the message as HTML messages.

3. Assuming I could covert my archives, is there any data cleaning tools that would help me scrub or massage the data? For example, remove the gmail and Yahoo trailers on messages that were archives.

4. Can user send an email that will update the forums

I definitely think FUDforum is the way to go but don't want to lose my archive of knowledge accumulated via Mailman.
