If you don't know which list you'd like to search, check out the list of lists hosted by RootsWeb at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~maillist/ You can search the message archives of the lists at: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl It does assume you know the name of the list you want to search but it's not too fussy about how you type it: for the SMITH list, you can ask for smith, Smith, SMITH, smiTh-L, and SMith-D, and still succeed. It includes messages through about a week ago. Have fun! Daryl >>
