Hmm, I would try this:

1) symlink all mboxes into one folder. As far as I remember, there is just 
one .mbox file per .mbox directory, right?

2) make sure this directory and all the mbox files are readable by all 
users.

3) create a public mailbox: http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Public 
read about the difference, if you set ":INDEX=~/Maildir/public" in 
location. Maybe, you also need a per-user CONTROL= setting.

It should be possible to expose the whole base directory 
/var/lib/mailman/archives/public via the namespace, but I don't know about 
the implications regarding the non-mbox directories.

Bye,
