Hi Richard,

Thanks for the workarounds.

FWIW, I downloaded the archives to my Mac and searched them en masse  
using TextWrangler, a text editor.

Crazy really, it was only yesterday, but I cannot for the life of me  
remember the term I used to find that info. Tried 8.0.2, update,  
downloading, manually, updater...

Still, it would be great to get "proper" searchable archives back  
online. Yahoo Groups work well. Incidentally, when I set up my first  
list using LISTSERV, I hacked together a Perl script to search the  
list archives. I was really pleased with myself when I worked out how  
to highlight the search term in red in the results :-)
