About:
Mhonarc is a Perl-based mail-to-HTML converter that processes email messages and archives them into browsable HTML pages. It handles MIME attachments, formatting, and threading to create static websites from mailing lists or email collections. Its main value is providing a lightweight, customizable way to publish email archives without requiring a database or server-side processing.
Key Features:
  • Converts email messages to HTML with MIME support
  • Handles attachments and inline content
  • Customizable templates and themes
  • Threaded message views and indexing
  • Command-line interface for batch processing
Use Cases:
  • Creating public archives for mailing lists
  • Converting email backups to searchable HTML
  • Publishing email newsletters as web content
Alternatives:
  • mailman – Full mailing list manager with web UI, heavier than Mhonarc
  • pipermail – Built-in archiver for GNU Mailman, similar static HTML output
