Ryabitsev: lore+lei: part 1, getting started

Konstantin Ryabitsev introduces
the “local email interface” (lei) functionality for the lore archive of
kernel mailing lists.

Even though it started out as merely a list archival service, it
quickly became obvious that lore could be used for a lot more. Many
developers ended up using its search features to quickly locate
emails of interest, which in turn raised a simple question — what
if there was a way to “save a search” and have it deliver all new
incoming mail matching certain parameters straight to the
developers’ inbox?

You can now do this with lei.
