(But the default search goes across all Gossamer archives I think... when
you search you can change the archive to Users or Dev)

Is there a search engine for the list archives?  The only site I know of is
(yes I'm new to this list in case you haven't yet figured that out ;-):

http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/

Currently, if I want to search the archives, I can either go into each month
and do a title search.  If I want to do a message body search, I can
download the complete archive and search the whole lot.

Is there a better way?
