Changes : 

    X For enhanced performences, we recommend you add an INDEX to your sympa 
database.
This
      fasten the queries based on the subscriber email :
          With MySQL : 
           ALTER TABLE subscriber_table ADD INDEX 
(user_subscriber,list_subscriber);
          With PostgreSQL : 
           CREATE INDEX subscriber_idx ON subscriber_table
(user_subscriber,list_subscriber));

    X Supress lower() function from SQL SELECT queries in user_table. This 
makes query
much faster
      (t/100) with MySQL.
      You should therefore lowercase your database entries : 
         sympa.pl --lowercase

    o Decode encoded header fields in web archives

                my $self = shift;
                my ($iv, $message) = unpack("a10a*", +shift);
                return $self->crypt($iv, $message);
        }
