[opensuse] list archive searching fubar
Does anyone know a way to search the mailing list archives where the search criteria get obeyed? Whenever I try to search by date range, first using the search box on e.g. https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/ and then opening the advanced search link, the date range I provide is utterly disregarded. When I try to limit results to only one list, that too is utterly disregarded. Also, there's no option in the select list to search only the body. Yesterday or the day before there was a post I now want to follow up to, but I already deleted it when it arrived, and have no idea which thread or list it was on. Subject matter in body I seek is IIRC lack of current maintainer for opensuse.org. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom."

Apparently any suggestion on this list of using alternative search tools is unwelcome, so I'm not going to mention date range search of specific sites using freely available tools. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.

Use Google.
