I don't understand. MHonArc is a tool for making list messages 
browsable/searchable on a website?
If that's the case I already have that, but I would like to make my 
archived messages part of a web-based forum (I'm currently considering 
MyBB although nothing's decided yet), transferring/merging them into the 
same format as the web forum.

MyBB has a "merge system" (http://www.mybb.com/downloads/merge-system) 
which allows data from a variety of web-forum software to be imported:

- Invision Power Board 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3
- MyBB 1.6 (Merge multiple copies of MyBB in to the one)
- phpBB 2
- phpBB 3
- SMF 1.1, 2.0
- PunBB 1.2
- vBulletin 3.6, 3.7, or 3.8
- XMB 1.9

As there aren't any plans of making a Majordomo import feature 
(apparently I'm one of the few migrating over to a web based forum) I've 
been suggested to see if any of the above web-forum software can import 
from Majordomo, then import that data further into MyBB. A longshot?
Any other suggestions?
