Thoughts? AFAIK markmail.org has public mailing list archives that are supposedly easier to search than the public archives on the Ubuntu site site can be searched. I'm not sure what's different between Markmail & Google Search? Does anybody know about spammers using their service (from what I can see e-mail addresses are obfuscated on their site). -- Jan Claeys -- loco-contacts mailing list loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts
