On 08-Dec-98 John Kohl spoke unto us all:
#  BTW, searching the mailing lists archives is a pain now--I used to be
#  able to download everything in a date range (when they were flat files)
#  and grep to my heart's content.  I can't find big archive files on the
#  web anymore :(

To quote my very own .sig:

NetBSD Mailing lists on the web: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/mlist

There is a search function.. ;)
