A newly registered account does not automatically get new privileges, so this doesn't increase security. At the same time, it strips the user of the possibility to manage their account.

As in Mailman3, the mailing list manager (postorius) and the archiver (hyperkitty) are separate, it also took a bit of trial and error for me to ensure, that new mails are being archived. I don't remember what was the cause in my case. But I think the mailman-web log files revealed it to me.

We have, in fact, opted for the Xapian indexer, given that the Whoosh indexer is not usable in practice.
I forgot to reopen the registration, I'll open it.
