Hiyo!

Any time I hit a bug like this with an archive the fault is usually
with a malformed message in the archive. I notice if I search for a blank
string or the single letter "a" or "b" I get the same 'empty page', but
if I search for "c" I get search results. So I am presuming that somehow
when it searches the pages, and includes a specific malformed message, 
it attempts to build the 'index' of search results, and encounters
perhaps a shell character and crashes....

If I may suggest, go to the directory "messages" and do an 'egrep' on
"From" and "Subject" and grep that for non-alphanumeric [^a-zA-Z0-9:]
characters. You might just need to delete a single message to get the
'rebuild' function to operate properly.....

Hope this helps!
