A quick update:

I've extended AOX with a trigger that takes care of filling a separate 
table that's used to display the index pages. The new table also stores 
threading information (standard headers + Exchange headers support) and 
whether or not the email has attachments.

Please check the updated PoC: http://archives.beccati.org/

pgsql-hackers and -general are currently subscribed, while -www only has 
2003 history imported via aoximport (very fast!).

BTW, I've just noticed a bug in the attachment detection giving false 
positives, but have no time to check now.
