I don't know how to translate emails as such but I think we could hack in few
things to translate archives..

Well, let's say we start tracking list archives in english and periodically
getting them translated using altavista and storing the resulted copies. I
don't know if altavista would allow to do that etc.

I tried searching for language translation tools but I have nothing concrete as
yet..
